Solid defensively in World Cup loss
Ngoy had two tackles (one won), eight clearances and two interceptions in Friday's 2-1 loss against Spain.
Analysis: Ngoy would have a decent day in the defense as Belgium tried to subdue Spain, recording two tackles, two interceptions and eight clearances despite the two goals allowed. This marks the defender's fourth start of the World Cup, missing one game due to a red card while going unused in another. At times, he looked to be the team's best defender, notching seven tackles, seven interceptions and 17 clearances in his 336 minutes of play.
Suspension over
Ngoy is no longer suspended and will be an option for Belgium's round of 32 fixture against a best third-placed nation on July 1.
Analysis: Ngoy had been sent off in the 66th minute of the match against Iran for denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity, which kept him out of the group stage finale against New Zealand. With his ban now served, he returns to contention for a starting role in the back line as Belgium move into the knockout stage.
