Bench option against Colombia
Sow (undisclosed) is on the bench for Tuesday's World Cup Round of 16 match against Colombia.
Analysis: Sow was considered questionable after being forced to leave training early on Monday, but he recovered sufficiently to be included in Switzerland's matchday squad. The midfielder remains available as a depth option after playing a limited role throughout the tournament, with coach Murat Yakin opting for other choices in the starting lineup. His presence on the bench is nonetheless a positive development for Switzerland, especially after several players dealt with fitness concerns ahead of the knockout clash. Sow could be called upon later in the match to provide energy and experience in midfield.
Questionable to face Colombia
Sow exited training early Monday and is now questionable for Tuesday's match against Colombia, 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: Sow is one of the numerous players heading into Tuesday's round of 16 match questionable, as the midfielder was forced off the training pitch early Monday. He has been more of a depth option so far this World Cup, but with Ruben Vargas (undisclosed), Johan Manzambi (undisclosed) and Michel Aebischer (undisclosed) all questionable, he may be needed in a bigger role. That said, he remains a late call for the contest, likely to serve on the bench if everyone is fit, but possibly starting if a few miss out.
