Late own goal
Muheim generated an own goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Qatar.
Analysis: Muheim came on as a substitute for Ricardo Rodriguez late in the second half of Saturday's 1-1 draw with Qatar, entering the match with Switzerland holding a 1-0 lead and seemingly on course for a winning start to their World Cup campaign. However, the left-back endured a nightmare introduction to the tournament when Boualem Khoukhi attacked a stoppage-time delivery into the box, with Muheim's attempted defensive intervention deflecting the ball past a helpless Gregor Kobel and into his own net. The unfortunate own goal gifted Qatar a dramatic equalizer and their first World Cup point, silencing the Swiss supporters at Levi's Stadium and turning what looked like a comfortable victory into a frustrating draw.
Returns to bench
Muheim (ankle) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Leverkusen.
Analysis: Muheim has been included in the squad after returning to full training for the first time following a three-game absence, with assistant manager Loic Fave's encouraging words translating into a cautious bench role rather than an immediate return to the starting lineup after just one session back. The left-back has been a near ever-present figure for Hamburg this season, starting all but one of his 28 Bundesliga appearances while tallying four assists, 41 chances created, 149 crosses and 62 tackles, and his presence among the substitutes is a welcome development ahead of a summer in which he will be hoping to secure his place in Switzerland's squad for the 2026 FIFA World Cup. His return to the starting lineup is expected to follow naturally once the ankle issue has fully settled.
