Brace leads Belgium's rout
Trossard scored two goals to go with seven shots (two on goal) and four chances created in Friday's 5-1 victory against New Zealand.
Analysis: Trossard set the tone in the 28th minute, pouncing from point-blank range after a goalmouth scramble before striking again five minutes into the second half with an acrobatic finish after Maxime Crocombe denied his initial effort. He also thought he had won a penalty earlier in the match, only for VAR to overturn the decision after his shot struck Finn Surman's arm, and capped off a dominant display with seven shots (two on target) and four chances created as Belgium's clear attacking catalyst. Trossard's brace powered the Red Devils to a commanding 5-1 win and secured top spot in Group G heading into the Round of 32.
Six key passes in draw
Trossard recorded one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and six chances created in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Iran.
Analysis: Trossard had a frustrated outing in Sunday's goalless draw with Iran, registering one shot, two tackles and six key passes across 90 minutes as the left forward in Belgium's attacking unit, coming closest in the first half when he fired narrowly wide from the edge of the area after a sharp combination with Kevin De Bruyne that briefly opened up Iran's left side. The Arsenal forward was largely peripheral for the remainder of the match as Iran's deep defensive block denied him the space to run in behind, and his inability to contribute more significantly in the areas where he had been most dangerous at club level summed up Belgium's collective. With Belgium needing to win against New Zealand, Trossard's ability to create and finish from wide left positions will be a key component of whatever attacking solution coach Rudi Garcia finds for the must-win final group game.
