Influential in midfield
Fernandez had three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 victory versus Switzerland.
Analysis: Fernandez registered three crosses (one accurate) and one chance created across his 90 minutes in Saturday's 3-1 extra-time win over Switzerland before being replaced by Thiago Almada at the start of extra time, completing 61 passes and contributing to Argentina's patient possession game as his side absorbed Switzerland's sustained pressure after Dan Ndoye's equalizer. The Chelsea midfielder's distribution and movement gave Argentina an important technical outlet in central areas throughout a physically demanding match, with his replacement at the start of extra time allowing Almada to provide the pace and directness that ultimately contributed to the decisive third goal.
Scores header
Fernandez scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Tuesday's 3-2 win versus Egypt.
Analysis: Fernandez was the hero of Tuesday's dramatic 3-2 win over Egypt, arriving at the back post in the second minute of stoppage time to head home Lautaro Martinez's precise cross and complete a remarkable comeback from 0-2 down, registering one goal and two shots (one on target) across his 90 minutes. The Chelsea midfielder now has one goal across two knockout appearances, and his 92nd-minute header sends Argentina into the quarterfinals where they will face Switzerland.
