Plays as RB in rotated XI
Aursnes generated one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 4-1 loss against France. He also added five tackles and three clearances.
Analysis: The Benfica midfielder was one of the few starters who got the nod into the XI in this match, but he operated as a right-back due to the absence of Julian Ryerson (thigh). Expect Aursnes to return to his regular midfield role when Norway take on Ivory Coast on Tuesday, June 30, in the Round of 32.
Creates once chance in Senegal bout
Aursnes registered one cross (one accurate), one tackle (zero won) and one cross (zero won) and created one scoring chance in Monday's 3-2 win against Senegal.
Analysis: Aursnes wasn't too visible but did more than in the opener, even though he was yanked at the interval to make way for Patrick Berg, who had an assist and slightly outplayed him overall. He wasn't great in the passive phase in this one, likely leading to the early sub. He might have to fight for minutes going forward. He has notched at least one tackle and one clearance in the first two games, piling up three of each.
