Gregor Kobel had to be patient for several years, but now he has finally done it: the BVB star is the new number one for the Swiss national team. After the European Championship, Yann Sommer made room for his younger opponent and resigned from the “Nati”.
However, since Gregor Kobel has been in goal for Switzerland, things have not been going well at all. On Saturday evening (October 12th), the “Nati” suffered their third defeat in a row. There is now even a threat of relegation
Gregor Kobel has to take the next setback
Three games, zero points, 1:8 goals – Switzerland’s record in the Nations League is shocking. After the Swiss lost against Denmark (0:2) and European champions Spain (1:4) in September, the next bankruptcy happened.

Switzerland lost 2-0 to Serbia in Leskovac on Saturday evening. Gregor Kobel actually had a good day and showed one or two strong saves. However, he was powerless when it came to conceding goals. First Nico Elvedi deflected a free kick into his own goal shortly before half-time, then Aleksandar Mitrovic beat the Swiss keeper with a powerful shot into the far corner.
