Yann Sommer on Breel Embolo's controversial red card against Argentina. 🗣️ “It's incredibly difficult to accept. I know Breel, and I know the kind of person and professional he is. He's not someone who looks to deceive referees or win cheap fouls. He plays with honesty, commitment and fights for every ball. “When I saw the red card, my heart sank. Moments like that can change an entire match and an entire tournament. We all felt the decision was extremely harsh, especially considering what was at stake. “Breel was devastated after the game. He wasn't thinking about himself—he was thinking about the team and the supporters. That's the type of character he has. He cares deeply, and seeing him leave the pitch like that was painful for all of us. “Argentina are a world-class side, and matches of this magnitude should be decided by football, not by controversial decisions that everyone will debate afterwards. “We leave this tournament disappointed, but no one in our dressing room has any doubts about Breel's integrity. He has nothing to be ashamed of. He gave everything for Switzerland, and we're all proud to stand beside him.”
