Switzerland goalkeeper Yann Sommer said the Swiss team has practiced penalties in training.
“During the European Championship, I interacted with my children several times, but we stopped meeting before the game because I was focused on the task at hand.” Sommer told reporters with a smile.
“We have taken penalties in training, and we have also done some recording, but taking penalties on the training ground is completely different from the situation of being under enormous pressure in the game.” Sommer confessed, “To be honest, I don’t want a penalty shootout, I hope we can win the game before that, because penalties are a matter of probability.”
Switzerland will face defending champions Italy in the round of 16. Italy’s goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma is also a great goalkeeper who helped Italy beat England on penalties in the final of the last European Championship. If Switzerland and Italy go to a penalty shootout, then an exciting PK is inevitable.
