Makes four saves against Brazil Sommer made four saves and conceded one goal during Monday's 1-0 loss against Brazil,

Impact Sommer had luck by his side when an offside earlier on the play was called after he was beaten by Vinicius Junior just after the hour mark. The goalkeeper looked to be on verge of keeping a second consecutive clean sheet but then, in the 83rd minute, came Casemiro with a beautiful one-timed shot that was still slight deflected by a defender before finding the back of the net. Despite the late goal allowed, the goalkeeper is still one of the best of the tournament at the position so far and he's certainly one of Switzerland's biggest hopes for Friday's crucial clash against Serbia.
