Opens scoring Saturday
Jean Jacques scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 victory over CF Montreal.
Analysis: Jean Jacques registered one goal, three shots (one on target), one chance created and two interceptions in Saturday's 2-0 win over Montreal, breaking the deadlock in the second half with a composed set-piece finish for his fourth goal of the season. The Haitian midfielder has now scored four goals and contributed one assist across 22 MLS appearances, and his two-way contribution reflects the complete midfield profile that makes him an indisputable starter.
Delivers one assist in victory
Jean Jacques assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 victory over New York Red Bulls.
Analysis: Jean Jacques released Cavan Sullivan for Philadelphia's second goal shortly after halftime, registering his first assist of the MLS campaign. He also contributed substantially without the ball, recording four tackles (two won) and one interception, while creating two chances across 84 minutes. Jean Jacques has produced three goals and one assist in 21 MLS appearances this season, with his two-way production making him an important presence in Philadelphia's midfield.
Scores in win
Jean Jacques scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-2 victory over New York City FC.
Analysis: Jean Jacques played a key role in Sunday's comeback win, scoring against NYCFC. It was his first goal since April and his third of the season. A regular starter in midfield, he has also contributed 31 tackles, 28 interceptions, and 21 clearances across 18 MLS appearances, including 17 starts.
Subbed off on Wednesday
Jacques had seven tackles (three won), one clearance and one interception in Wednesday's 4-2 loss versus Morocco.
Analysis: Jacques anchored Haiti's midfield with an energetic display before being replaced in the 80th minute. He completed 89 percent of his passes, won seven of 11 ground duels and produced an outstanding defensive contribution with seven tackles and a block.
Completes 44 passes
Jean Jacques recorded one interception, one clearance and two tackles in Friday's 3-0 loss to Brazil.
Analysis: Jean Jacques played the full 90 minutes Friday but was unable to get much going against Brazil, as he earned no stats on the attacking side of the ball. He would complete 44 of his passes, second best on the team, although that is expected from a midfielder. He will now look for a better effort in the group stage finale, although the squad could rotate after their elimination.
Wins eight duels versus Scotland
Jean Jacques generated one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 loss versus Scotland.
Analysis: Jean Jacques operated as one of his side's two central midfielders alongside Jean-Ricner Bellegarde, with most of his production coming from passing and one-on-one play during the defeat. The Philadelphia Union man won a team-high eight duels and three tackles, yet he fell short of making a decisive impact. Following Haiti's decent overall performance Saturday, he'll hope to get more opportunities for the remainder of the tournament.
