Secures claan sheet
Sanchez had six clearances and one chance created in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Portugal.
Analysis: Sanchez played a major role in keeping Portugal off the scoresheet on Saturday, recording six clearances while winning two aerial duels and making two tackles. He has formed a strong defensive shield in front of Camilo Vargas throughout the group stage, with Colombia conceding just one goal across three matches, tied for the second‑fewest in the tournament. His individual totals now include 15 clearances and two crucial blocks, underscoring how important he has been to Colombia's defensive stability.
Dominant display in clean sheet
Sanchez recorded one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 victory over DR Congo.
Analysis: Sanchez put in a dominant defensive display, doing an excellent job of keeping DR Congo forward Cedric Bakambu quiet for most of the game. The center back was solid throughout, winning one tackle, adding two interceptions and three clearances to help his side earn a valuable clean sheet that secured their qualification. He also contributed going forward, getting himself a chance from a set piece and creating one chance. With Colombia enjoying plenty of possession, Sanchez was equally important in build-up play, completing an impressive 63 passes.
