Ruled out against France
Ryerson is feeling better but will not be an option for the clash against France, according to Norway head coach Stale Solbakken via Aftenposten. "Yes, he is excluded. He has not gone home, we are keeping him here and hope he makes progress. He is feeling better today than yesterday. But he will not be around."
Analysis: Ryerson was forced off with an injury just 11 minutes into the game against Senegal, and he was later seen with an ice pack wrapped around the top of his thigh. No exact timeline has been given for his potential return, with the manager only expressing hope that he could be available for the round of 32, but he will definitely miss the game against France, a match expected to see significant rotation for Norway regardless.
Set for rest due to minor injury
Ryerson is not expected to be dealing with a serious injury and should be an option for the team, but will likely be rested to face France on Friday, according to Patrick Berger of Sky Sports.
Analysis: Ryerson was a worry for Norway after their great start to the tournament, but looks to now be dealing with only a minor injury, avoiding anything serious. This is major news for the team, as he has been a starter on the right side of the defense. However, he is unlikely to be risked against France as they try to avoid further injury, leaving Marcus Pedersen as a possible replacement at right-back.
