With nearly 600,000 Instagram followers, the Switzerland goalkeeper went to the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, but had to wait months later to make his international debut. The 27-year-old, who plays for German club Borussia Dortmund, is still a backup keeper, but he has our support.

2. Ahmed Reda Tagnaouti of Morocco (aged 22, six foot one)

 
 

The youngest player in the Morocco team is out on loan at Ittihad Tanger, from Moroccan giants Wydad Casablanca. Why do backup goalkeepers at this tournament look so good?

3. Yoshinori Muto of Japan (Aged 25, five foot 10)
