Official Swiss formations published - Collumb

Switzerland and Colombia face the 2026 World Cup tonight, with the last spot in the quarterfinals still at stake.
Murat Yakin's team secured the qualifications in the 1/8th phase of the final after a 2-0 smooth victory over Algeria, while Colombia defeated Ghana with a minimum score of 1-0.
Right-wing defender Silvan Widmer has recovered enough to be in the Swiss reserve bank, yet the departure of Johann Manzamby, Reuben Vargas and Djibril Soow from Monday's pre-time exercise raised serious concerns.
Vargas and Sow have managed to be part of the match team, while Luca Jaquez and Michel Aebischer are missing.
Captain Granit Jaka, Manuel Akanji and Breel Embolo are seniors, despite being monitored for what the medical staff described as “muscle overload”.
Another Albanian, Ardon Jashari, begins from the start.
On the other hand, Colombia has lost attacker Jho Córdoba for the remainder of the tournament, as he suffered an injury to the educational muscle during the match with Ghana. He's on the game list, but he's not expected to activate.
Nico Elvedi will form the defence centre couple with Manuel Akanj.
In the midfield, Remo Frauler, former Nottingham Forest player, will play alongside Gran'n Jaka.
Johann Manzambi is missing because of the damage, leaving Breel Embalon as the sole assailant in formation.
In Colombia, Camilo Vargas is the undisputed goalkeeper in this World Cup and protected by four Daniel Muñoz, Davinson Sánchez, Jon Lucumí and Johann Mojica.
Jefferson Lemma stands before the midfield defense, with Jho Aryas and Gustavo Puerta in his arms, while Bayern Munich star Louis Díaz is the most dangerous player on the left flank.
Luis Suárez is expected to lead the attack in the absence of Córdobas, while James Rodríguez, former midfielder of Real Madrid and Everton, will have a free right-hand role, often moving towards the centre with his left foot.
