In the thrilling 1-1 draw against Switzerland, Tah picked up his second yellow card of the tournament.
According to the Euro regulations, Tah will be suspended for Germany’s next match. The opponent in the Round of 16 is yet to be determined, but it is likely to be Italy, a team that has often proved problematic for Germany. If Italy avoids defeat against Croatia in their final group match, they will advance as group runners-up. Tah will, therefore, be absent from this crucial clash.
Nagelsmann fielded all four players with yellow cards in their starting lineup, with Andrich, Mittelstädt, and Rudiger fortunate to avoid additional bookings.
