Sees yellow in loss
Gudmundsson recorded one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 5-1 loss versus Netherlands. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 53rd minute.
Analysis: Gudmundsson created one chance and was given a yellow card during Saturday's loss. He's now at risk of a suspension if he's given another yellow card in the final match of the group stage. He failed to send in an accurate cross during the match as Sweden were routed. Gudmundsson will get the chance to bounce back in the final match of the group.
Expected available after cramp
Gudmundsson (cramp) was forced off in the 65th minute of Sweden's 5-1 victory over Tunisia but coach Graham Potter played down any injury concerns after the match, per Leeds live. "It was a cramp."
Analysis: Gudmundsson had already been managing a hamstring issue sustained during the FA Cup semifinal with Leeds and had only played one game in seven weeks before starting against Tunisia, making his early exit an immediate concern. Manager Graham Potter's brief but reassuring update suggests the substitution was precautionary rather than the result of any significant setback, giving Sweden confidence that their left wingback will be available for Saturday's clash against the Netherlands. Gudmundsson impressed defensively during his time on the pitch, recording a team-high five clearances and three successful aerial duels, and Sweden will hope the five-day rest between fixtures is sufficient for him to be fully available for what would be a potentially tournament-defining fixture.
