Set for one-game suspension

Gomez is set for a one-game suspension due to yellow card accumulation.

Analysis: Gomez is going to miss the round of 32 after Paraguay looks likely to qualify for the round of 32, with the midfielder seeing a yellow in two group stage matches and now suspended for a game. This is a major loss to the team, as he has been a major center of play in the middle of the field, leaving them without a useful midfield option. The good news for the team is that they will have Miguel Almiron available again, who should enter the starting XI again as Matias Galarza covers a central role.

Avoids injury scare

Gomez was attended to by trainers during training Wednesday ahead of Thursday's match against Australia, but only due to a minor scare, according to ABC Deportes.

Analysis: Gomez went down in training and would need some attention from medical staff after the blow, bringing a bit of worry around the midfielder. However, it was only after being stepped on by a teammate, a minor injury scare that now holds no weight. He will then remain an option to face Australia, where he is expected to start in the midfield for a third straight game.
