How to Watch Switzerland vs. Colombia
Switzerland vs. Colombia Preview
Johan Manzambi finding space between Colombia’s midfield and back line is the key thing to watch.
For Switzerland, the game keeps pointing back to that new attacking spark. In addition to his 3 goals, Manzambi has 2 assists in 4 matches. He’s doing it without needing a huge volume of starts. That matters against a Colombia side that likes to control the ball because Switzerland can stay compact and then look for one clean connection into him around Breel Embolo.
On the other side, Colombia makes that pocket hard to live in. They have allowed just 1 goal in the tournament and come in with 3 straight clean sheets, so the space Manzambi wants is usually crowded fast and closed even faster. If Colombia keeps Switzerland playing wide and away from central combinations, the Swiss attack can lose its sharpest edge.
Watch the first few Swiss entries into the final third. If Manzambi is receiving on the turn, this match opens up.
Player to Watch
The Swiss captain is essential to his team’s chances of playing the way it wants to play. Switzerland cannot afford to chase the game for too long, and Xhaka, at his best, can win possession and set up his teammates in the attacking third while also defending well. Switzerland needs him to be in his top form like he was against Ghana.
