Josip Drmic's emergence as Switzerland's best source of World Cup goals continued on Friday, striking late in a 1-0 warm-up win over Jamaica.
The Bayer Leverkusen forward's assured finish with the outside of his right foot in the 84th minute marked his third goal in two international friendlies this year.
Drmic, a half-time substitute, earlier shot over a gaping goal from three yards out. He also forced Jamaica goalkeeper Andre Blake into a diving save from a rising shot.
Switzerland improved after a lacklustre first half, when coach Ottmar Hitzfeld started with only five players from his likely World Cup lineup.
The Swiss host Peru next Tuesday before traveling to Brazil.
Switzerland opens their Group E campaign against Ecuador on June 15 in Brasilia, then play France and Honduras.
