Breel Embolo Shines in Tournament Debuts for Switzerland

Breel Embolo has made his mark by scoring in the opening matches of major tournaments for Switzerland. He opened Euro 2021 with a 49th‑minute goal against Wales, and netted the sole goal in Qatar 2022 to beat Cameroon.

In the 2026 World Cup, Switzerland fell 6‑1 to Portugal, ending their run despite Embolo’s earlier contributions. His knack for debut goals remains a highlight for the Swiss side.
