Because they've just announced he has been withdrawn from the matchday squad. Which suggests he was in the matchday squad but now isn't.
I'm not sure if that means they necessarily left it late mate, probably more the case they were trying to wait until the very last minute in the hope they got some confirmation from FIFA
Well, either way, it really sucks because Matip is class. Hope Lovren and Klavan can do the job today, they did well vs City
