Balanced output during blowout
Al-Ammari logged two crosses (zero accurate), one corner, one chance created, one interception, one clearance and one block during Iraq's 5-0 loss Friday against Senegal. He also received a yellow card.
Analysis: During each of Iraq's group-stage games, Al-Ammari attempted multiple crosses and at least one corner, though he was recently not accurate come Friday against Senegal. For the World Cup, Al-Ammari logged one assist on eight crosses (four accurate), four chances created and three corners. Al-Ammari logged said assist against Norway, where the midfielder's defensive was arguably his weakest. Excluding said appearance, in which Al-Ammari logged only one clearance, he cleared the ball three more times to go with four blocks and two interceptions.
Registers two crosses Monday
Al-Ammari registered two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Monday's 3-0 loss to France. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the sixth minute.
Analysis: Al-Ammari helped his team in terms of ball distribution but lacked attacking production as he got only one set piece in this game. With one assist across 158 minutes of play, Al-Ammari could be expected to remain of Iraq's few consistent threats if he's able to take more corner kicks in the upcoming meeting with Senegal, but his upside could otherwise be limited from a defensive midfield spot.
