Takes two shots vs. Algeria
Seiwald recorded two shots (zero on goal) in Saturday's 3-3 draw against Algeria.
Analysis: Seiwald was deployed in a holding midfield role, but he ended up leading the team in shots and constantly pushed the lines forward. The RB Leipzig midfielder should remain a starter in the Round of 32 versus Spain, but he shouldn't carry a ton of upside since he's expected to deploy in a more defensive stance.
Starts on Monday
Seiwald registered one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 2-0 defeat versus Argentina.
Analysis: Seiwald delivered one of Austria's most complete performances and covered over 10 kilometers. He completed 44 of 45 passes, won every ground duel he contested and recorded three tackles, three interceptions and a goal-line clearance. He had to cover a lot of distance to numerically match the 2v1 and 3v1 situations Argentina created out wide.
