Benfica right-back Amar Dedic has picked up a muscle injury ahead of the meeting with Qatar and could miss the remainder of the World Cup.

According to Arena Sport, head coach Sergej Barbarez described it as a minor issue at the front of Dedic’s thigh and said they hope he will be fine, noting that missing one or two sessions is normal.

It is not the first time Dedic has been injured while on international duty.
