Switzerland’s penalty shoot-out hero Yann Sommer joked he wanted Robert De Niro to play him in a movie about their famous win over France. The world champions and Euro 2020 favourites exited after Sommer saved Kylian Mbappe’s spot-kick after a 3-3 draw following extra time. I’ll give Robert De Niro a call to see if he wants to play me,” the goalkeeper told German broadcaster ZDF. Sommer said the team spirit within the Swiss camp was key to their comeback against France. “I’m really proud of this team, how we came back, and how we played this game,” he told euro2020.com.
