Kobel secures group victory with Switzerland

At the FIFA World Cup, Switzerland won their head-to-head match against Canada 2-1, securing top spot in Group B. Gregor Kobel was in goal for the Swiss for the full 90 minutes.

In the final group match, Switzerland and Canada were battling it out for top spot in Group B. Kobel and his teammates needed a win to progress to the round of 16 as group winners, and they secured it thanks to goals from Ruben Vargas (46) and Johan Manzambi (57). Kobel was only beaten once, as Promise David scored to make it 1-2 (76).

Switzerland will play their round of 32 match on Friday (3 July, 05:00 CEST) against a third-placed team. As with their final group match, the venue will once again be Vancouver.

More Borussia players are in action on Thursday as Germany face Ecuador at 10:00 CEST. Overnight into Friday, Sweden will also play Japan (01:00 CEST) and Turkey will face the USA (04:00 CEST).
