Brilliant against Colombia Kobel made three saves and allowed zero goals in Tuesday's 0-0 (4-3) penalty shootout win against Colombia.

Impact Kobel denied the opposition some big opportunities throughout the game, and he also stopped Cucho Hernandez's shootout penalty kick, leading Switzerland to a historic quarter-finals qualification. The goalkeeper has been solid across five appearances at the international competition, allowing only three goals and keeping his goal unbeaten in each of the two knockout contests so far. Up next he'll face Argentina's powerful offense, which has scored three goals in three straight games.

JULY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Two saves against Algeria Kobel recorded two saves and allowed zero goals in Thursday's 2-0 win versus Algeria.

Impact Kobel made two saves in Thursday's 2-0 win over Algeria, denying Ibrahim Maza's snap shot that dragged narrowly wide in first-half stoppage time and getting down comfortably when Riyad Mahrez fired straight at him in the second half after the Algerian captain's only real chance of the match was blocked by Manuel Akanji. The Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper commanded his area throughout and was largely untroubled by an Algeria attack that managed very few clear-cut opportunities against Switzerland's organized defensive block. His two saves and clean sheet heading into the round of 16 against Colombia or Ghana continue a consistent group stage campaign in which Switzerland ended 88 years of World Cup knockout pain with a controlled and clinical performance in Vancouver.

JULY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes once versus Canada Kobel recorded six saves and gave up one goal in Wednesday's 2-1 victory against Canada.

Impact Kobel was suspect a couple of times, but he set a new season high in saves in the competition and surrendered just one goal, on a tidy finish from the middle of the box after he had come out of the goal a little too tentatively, which sufficed for Switzerland to claim all three points. He has yet to keep a clean sheet, but he has conceded three goals and made 11 saves so far. His team advanced to the knockout stage and will take the field Thursday.

JUNE 25 • ROTOWIRE

Clean sheet lost in stoppage time Kobel registered two saves and allowed one goal in Thursday's 4-1 win versus Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Impact Kobel spent most of the night as a spectator, with Bosnia barely threatening his goal and two comfortable saves from outside the box all he had to deal with. Everything was pointing towards a clean sheet, especially after Bosnia were reduced to ten men, but a late corner in stoppage time saw Kobel's punch fall straight to Ermin Mahmic, who volleyed it home and snatched the clean sheet away at the last moment. That first World Cup shutout remains elusive for the Swiss keeper, but he'll get another shot against host nation Canada.

JUNE 19 • ROTOWIRE

Three saves in draw Kobel had three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Qatar.

Impact Kobel was sharp throughout Saturday's 1-1 draw with Qatar in the World Cup opener in Santa Clara, making three saves across 90 minutes, including a strong stop from Edmilson Junior's close-range effort in the first half. The Borussia Dortmund goalkeeper was ultimately beaten only by Boualem Khoukhi's stoppage-time header, deflected in off Miro Muheim, in a moment that will haunt Switzerland heading into Thursday's clash against Bosnia-Herzegovina with the group now wide open.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Switzerland No.1 goalkeeper Kobel has been named in Switzerland's World Cup squad and is set to start in goal, arriving at the tournament off the back of one of the strongest seasons of his career with Boruss...

Impact Kobel posted 121 saves, 17 clean sheets and conceded 55 goals across 44 appearances in all competitions this season, underlining his consistency and reliability between the posts at the highest level. At 28, Kobel arrives in peak physical condition and with the confidence of a player who has cemented his status as one of the top goalkeepers in European football over the past several seasons. Kobel is the undisputed first choice for Switzerland and a key figure in the defensive structure manager Murat Yakin has built around him. His ability to distribute from the back fits perfectly into the Swiss style of play, and his presence gives the defenders in front of him the security and confidence to press aggressively without fear of being caught out. Switzerland will need Kobel at his best if they are to navigate a competitive group stage and push deep into the knockout rounds this summer.

JUNE 3 • ROTOWIRE

Three saves in 2-0 win Kobel recorded three saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Werder Bremen.

Two saves for win Kobel made two saves and allowed two goals in Friday's 3-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 94th minute.

Impact Kobel stopped only two of the four shots he faced during Friday's win, but that was enough for a big three points. The goalkeeper would have liked to have at least one of the goals back, but the team in front of him offered enough support to get him the win either way. Kobel has been one of the best in the Bundesliga this season, and is still improving.

MAY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Gives up game's only goal Kobel made three saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Monchengladbach.

Impact Kobel did make three saves but he conceded the late winner against Borussia Monchengladbach on Sunday.

MAY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Four saves in clean sheet Kobel kept a clean sheet while making four saves during Sunday's 4-0 win over Freiburg.

Impact Kobel helped Dortmund to all three points by blanking Freiburg on Sunday. The keeper has allowed three goals while combining for nine saves over his last three starts with the clean sheet being his first since April 4th. Dortmund head to Gladbach on Sunday.
