Busy in defeat
Upamecano recorded four clearances and one interception in Tuesday's 2-0 defeat against Spain.
Analysis: Upamecano racked up defensive contributions, carrying plenty of responsibility after his center-back partner William Saliba (back) was forced to leave the field in the 30th minute of the match. The Bayern Munich player increased his totals to 26 clearances and 13 interceptions across seven games played in the international event. He has started in every contest, making a significant defensive impact despite some specific mistakes during the knockout stages.
Helps to clean sheet
Upamecano registered one shot (one on goal) in Thursday's 2-0 win against Morocco.
Analysis: Upamecano would have a solid day in defense as France earned a clean sheet, playing the full 90 minutes while earning three tackles (two won) and four clearances. He would also come close to scoring on his one shot, connecting on an early header from a cross before a wonderful save from Bono. Upamecano has only left the field for 14 minutes this World Cup, helping the team to all four of their clean sheets.
