Named among substitutes

Vargas (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's World Cup Round of 16 clash against Colombia.

Analysis: Vargas had been considered a major doubt after leaving training early on Monday, but he recovered sufficiently to be included in the matchday squad. However, Switzerland opted not to risk one of its key attacking players from the opening whistle, ending his streak of starts at the tournament. Fabian Rieder gets the nod on the wing after Vargas entered the match with two goals and one assist in the World Cup. Vargas remains available as an impact option off the bench if Switzerland needs additional attacking quality later in the contest.

Late call for Tuesday

Vargas exited training early Monday ahead of Tuesday's match against Colombia and is now questionable, according to manager Murat Yakin, per Lucas Werder of Blick. "The annoyance is, of course, great that they had to interrupt training one day before the game. It would be a big loss if they couldn't stand on the court tomorrow. We will look closely today and tomorrow to see if they can still be there"

Analysis: Vargas has some questions around his availability heading into Tuesday, as the winger was forced to exit training early. This is a major concern for the team, as he has started in all but one game so far this World Cup and remains one of their top attacking options, plus Johan Manzambi (undisclosed) is also questionable. Vargas has earned two goals and an assist, so his absence would leave a hole on the left flank. With two other options to join the midfield in Michel Aebischer (undisclosed) and Djibril Sow (undisclosed) also questionable to play, Fabian Rieder or Noah Okafor could find starting time if Vargas is out.
