📰 Key Team News

🇨🇮 ❌ WILFRIED SINGO — OUT (hamstring injury vs Germany)

Galatasaray right-back forced off in the Germany game, ruled out here. Guela Doué (Monaco) covers at RB — a positional shift from his usual CB role.

🇨🇮 ⚠️ EVAN NDICKA — BENCH ONLY (returned to training, not ready to start)

Roma CB resumed training after thigh injury but Fae has kept faith in the Kossounou–Agbadou partnership. Ndicka is available as a bench option only.

🇨🇮 ✅ ELYE WAHI — RETURNS TO BENCH (absent vs Germany, visa issues resolved)

Nice striker returns to the squad after missing the Germany fixture. 15 goals in 2025-26 at club level. Available as 2nd-half impact option alongside Guessand.

🇨🇼 ✅ JÜRGEN LOCADIA — FIT TO START (knock vs Ecuador, passed fitness test)

Came off late against Ecuador with a knock but has passed his fitness test and retains his starting spot as the lone striker. Critical for Curacao's counter-attack threat.

🏆 MILESTONE: ELOY ROOM & LEANDRO BACUNA — 75TH INTERNATIONAL CAPS TODAY

Both players earn their record-equalling 75th Curacao cap today. Room already made WC history with 15 saves vs Ecuador — equalling the all-time record for saves in a regulation WC game.
