Trains with team
Tabakovic (ankle) returned to training with the team ahead of the second game against Switzerland, according to Bosnian Football.
Analysis: Tabakovic has been working separately in recent days as he recovers from an ankle injury picked up in his last Bundesliga match, which kept him out of Bosnia and Herzegovina's World Cup opener. He made a notable step forward by joining full team training the day after the game, and could now be in contention for selection against Switzerland, though the forward will likely be a bench option
Not facing Canada
Tabakovic (ankle) will be absent from Bosnia Herzegovina's World Cup opener against Canada, with coach Sergej Barbarez confirming that "it's too early and that in the best case he'll play in the second game.", reprezentacija.ba reports.
Analysis: Tabakovic has yet to fully overcome his ankle problem and is unlikely to play a meaningful role in the group stage. The striker would normally be part of the rotation with Ermedin Demirovic, Jovo Lukic and Edin Dzeko (undisclosed), but losing him limits the depth of a team that will at least recover Dzeko for Friday's contest.
