Scores in Canada fixture
Vargas scored one goal to go with one shot (one on target), two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Canada.
Analysis: Vargas returned to the starting lineup after being deployed as a sub in the previous game and broke the deadlock right away in the second half with a clever finish on the near post after cutting from the wing, making the stat sheet in back-to-back matches. He has registered at least one shot and one cross in all three games, amassing six (four on target) and 17 (three on target), assisting once and adding two corners and three tackles (two won).
Goal and assist off bench
Vargas scored one goal and assisted once from two shots and one chance created in Thursday's 4-1 victory versus Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Analysis: Vargas was surprisingly left out of the starting XI but wasted no time proving a point when he came on. He and Johan Manzambi transformed the game from the moment they stepped onto the pitch, with Vargas's runs and crosses down the left directly influencing three of Switzerland's goals, capped by a goal and an assist of his own.
