Alexsandro
LOSC
Assists opener despite defensive struggles
Alexsandro assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 4-2 loss versus Galatasaray.
Analysis: Alexsandro recorded one assist, one off-target shot and one chance created across the full 90 minutes in Wednesday's 4-2 Champions League loss to Galatasaray. His attempted headed clearance fell to Yunus Akgun for the visitors' second-minute opener, but he responded six minutes later with a driving run through midfield and a perfectly weighted pass behind the defense for Soriba Diaoune to equalize. Alexsandro remained involved in Lille's buildup from center-back, although the hosts struggled defensively after halftime and conceded two more goals as Galatasaray completed its comeback.
Scores one goal in defeat
Alexsandro scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Tuesday's 3-2 defeat to Betis.
Analysis: Alexsandro delivered at both ends of the pitch, rising to meet Gaetan Perrin's corner and heading Lille back in front in the 36th minute. He was even busier defensively, producing six clearances, three blocks and two successful tackles, but Lille were unable to protect the lead after halftime. His combination of heavy defensive involvement and aerial ability on set pieces provides multiple routes to production from center-back.
Busy defensively in 1-0 win
Alexsandro had two tackles (two won), 12 clearances and one interception in Thursday's 1-0 victory over Toulouse.
Analysis: Alexsandro had an incredible busy game as Lille defeated Toulouse 1-0. He has now been crucial in two clean sheet wins so far this season. He won both of his tackles, drew two fouls and made 12 clearances in the game, while also making a block and an interception. This is the second time in three games that he has made 10 or more clearances in a game.
