Joao Cancelo
32-Year-Old
Barcelona
La Liga
Logs two crosses, two blocks
Cancelo registered two crosses (zero accurate) and two clearances in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Colombia.
ANALYSIS
Cancelo registered two crosses, two blocks and one interception across his 45 minutes in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Colombia before being replaced at halftime by Diogo Dalot as coach Roberto Martinez made his tactical adjustments for the second period. His ability to contribute in both directions gives Portugal a technically versatile option at right-back, though his replacement at halftime suggests the coaching staff felt a different approach was needed to unlock the Colombian block and that Dalot could offer more going forward against Croatia.
