The 2022 FIFA World Cup continued Thursday with Switzerland taking care of business against Cameroon, winning 1-0 to open the day.
In a relatively uneventful match, Breel Embolo scored the match's lone goal in the opening minutes of the second half against the country he was born in, providing an emotional moment for the 25-year-old.
Switzerland goalkeeper Yann Sommer had five saves in the win.

14': Sommer stepping up early
The Switzerland goalkeeper made another early stop when Eric Choupo-Moting broke away for a shot in the box. However, a goal wouldn't have counted there as Choupo-Moting was ruled offside.
