Assists in draw Saturday
Laimer assisted once to go with two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus Algeria.
Analysis: Laimer set up Marcel Sabitzer's goal in the second half with a perfect low cross that the Dortmund midfielder smashed home beautifully. Laimer played in a more advanced role in this match, but he figures to return to his regular defensive role in a tough Round of 32 match against Spain on Thursday, where Austria figure to be massive underdogs.
Starts at left back
Laimer recorded one tackle (zero won), one clearance and one interception in Monday's 2-0 loss versus Argentina. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 76th minute.
Analysis: Laimer started the game from left back after featuring in the midfield in the last contest. Laimer covered over nine kilometers and competed aggressively, winning five of his nine duels. He completed 34 passes and also recorded six sprints (mostly off the ball). He was critical to Austria's pressing structure as he was instructed to close down the channel on the left, but the press was frequently beaten due to excellent work from Nahuel Molina, Rodrigo De Paul and Lionel Messi.
