TPO - Center back Jonathan Tah will have to sit out the round of 16 after receiving two yellow cards in matches against Scotland and Switzerland.

Contrary to pre-match predictions, the home team Germany did not have an easy match against Switzerland. Julian Nagelsmann's students had many difficulties in penetrating the opponent's solid defense. The surprise happened in the 28th minute, Manuel Neuer's net shook after Dan Ndoye's tap-in. The German team had to wait until the 90+2 minute to break through the Swiss net. David Raum crossed the ball as if setting it up for Niclas Fullkrug to head it into Sommer's net.
Germany suffered a loss in terms of strength after the hard-fought draw with Switzerland. Center-back Jonathan Tah received his second yellow card of the tournament after a foul on Breel Embolo and will miss the next round. This is a big loss for Germany because Jonathan Tah was in very good form last season for Leverkusen. Tah has also been in the starting lineup of the German team in every match since September 13, 2023.
Center-back Nico Schlotterbeck is likely to replace Jonathan Tah. The player born in 1999 had an impressive season when he helped Dortmund advance to the Champions League final. In the 61st minute of the match against Switzerland, coach Julian Nagelsmann sent Nico Schlotterbeck onto the field to replace Jonathan Tah.
Meanwhile, Tah's partner in this tournament, Antonio Rudiger, is also at risk of not being able to play in the round of 16. Center-back Rudiger strained his thigh while celebrating Fullkrug's equalizer.
Germany won the group after drawing with Switzerland, and their opponents in the round of 16 will be the second-placed team in Group C. Group C is still undecided, but Germany's most likely opponents are Denmark.
