Unavailable against Argentina
Fotouh (hamstring) is absent from Egypt's squad for Tuesday's World Cup Round of 16 clash against Argentina.
Analysis: Fotouh was unable to recover in time after missing training sessions leading up to the knockout fixture. The left-back had already been sidelined for the victory over Australia and will now miss a second consecutive match due to the hamstring issue. His continued absence leaves Karim Hafez in line to maintain his role on the left side of defense. Fotouh's next chance to return will depend on Egypt advancing and his ability to resume full training in the coming days.
Doubt to face Argentina
Fotouh (hamstring) is a major doubt for Egypt's World Cup round of 16 matchup versus Argentina on Tuesday, according to assistant manager Ibrahim Hassan, Infobae reported Sunday.
Analysis: Fotouh seems unlikely to play in the next game, having yet to return to full training sessions. He missed the first playoff match against Australia after starting in each of the group-stage contests, and his continued absence would hurt the Pharaohs in defensive aspects. In that case, Karim Hafez might get another opportunity at left-back.
