Joël Mall (born 5 April 1991) is a Swiss football goalkeeper. He currently plays for the Swiss record champion Grasshopper Club Zürich in the Raiffeisen Super League. Mall has appeared for the Swiss under-20 national football team.
Mall attracted media attention in November 2014 when he pulled off a spectacular double save in a game against FC Zürich. Zürich were awarded a penalty which was taken by Amine Chermiti. Mall saved the initial shot but it rebounded back to Chermiti who shot again, but Mall saved the second shot as well. Incredibly Chermiti then had a third shot at goal but this time it was acrobatically hooked off the line by defender Igor N'Ganga.[1]
