Fit for bench
Akgun (undisclosed) is on the bench for Thursday's match against the USA.
Analysis: Akgun is back in the team sheet after some injury concerns at training, with the forward recovering from an undisclosed injury. He did start their last match but was likely to drop to the bench to face the USA, even if he was fit, potentially seeing some time from the bench to end his World Cup.
Little influence on right flank
Akgun had two crosses (one accurate) in Friday's 1-0 defeat versus Paraguay.
Analysis: Akgun came into the side on the right wing after being benched in the previous game but failed to make any impression. He was the least involved offensive player on the pitch, even less active than some of the backline, and managed only two crosses without registering a shot or a chance created in a very quiet night.
