Breel Embolo’s second-half goal led Switzerland to a narrow win over Cameroon in the World Cup Group G opener on Thursday.
Neither national team was able to break the deadlock in the first half at Qatar’s Al Janoub Stadium.
But Cameroonian-born forward Embolo scored the winning goal with a close-range finish, assisted by Xherdan Shaqiri in the 48th minute.
