Two interceptions in loss
Al Rashdan generated one tackle (one won) and two interceptions in Saturday's 3-1 loss versus Argentina.
Analysis: Al Rashdan grabbed headlines after scoring against Algeria, but he earned most of his minimal fantasy upside due to his defensive work. He looked overmatched in this loss, as he couldn't cope with the superior playmakers of the Argentina midfield. In three World Cup outings, Al Rashdan had one goal, eight tackles, four clearances and two interceptions.
Scores one goal in defeat
Al Rashdan scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Monday's 2-1 defeat against Algeria.
Analysis: Al Rashdan was Jordan's best outfield performer in Monday's 1-2 defeat to Algeria, scoring a brilliant outside-of-the-boot finish from the right side of the area in the first half while also registering two shots (one on target) and three tackles (two won) across his 90 minutes in a box-to-box role that required both defensive discipline and attacking output. His ability to arrive late from central midfield, win the ball and produce moments of quality against top opposition make him one of the most complete midfielder in Jordan's squad.
