Comes on as sub to score and assist
Saliba scored one goal and assisted once from three shots and two chances created in Thursday's 6-0 victory over Qatar.
Analysis: Saliba came from the bench for the injured Ismael Kone. Kone suffered a serious leg injury and was stretchered off for treatment in the hospital. Saliba's goal came from a free kick on the edge of the box. The midfielder held up a Kone shirt in tribute to his injured teammate. He then created the chance for Jonathan David to complete his hattirck and to seal the game 60. He took a total of three shots and created two chances.
Goal, assist from bench
Saliba recorded one goal on three shots (one on target) and one assist on two chances created in Thursday's 6-0 win over Qatar.
Analysis: Saliba would enter the field in the 57th minute Thursday after the horrific injury to Ismael Kone (leg), earning a solid 33 minutes off the bench. He would have an exceptional match once on the field, first scoring a great free kick in the 56th minute before an assist on Jonathan David's 92nd-minute goal. Saliba does this all after he went unused last match, a great World Cup debut for the 22-year-old. He will now likely be tasked with a bigger role after the apparent leg break for Kone, so it is a good sign to see the midfielder getting involved immediately.
