World Cup ends with 11 clearances
Halhal went unused in Thursday's 2-0 loss to France.
Analysis: Halhal was not given any time on the field Thursday as the defender went unused in the loss. This is despite a start in the round of 16, ending his tournament with two starts in two appearances. He ends the tournament with one tackle, an interception, 11 clearances and 113 passes completed.
Five clearances in spot start
Halhal had five clearances and one interception in Saturday's 3-0 win against Canada. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 20th minute.
Analysis: Halhal got the start over Chadi Riad, and he had a solid job while dealing with the threat of Jonathan David and Tani Oluwaseyi. Riad should be back in the XI for the quarterfinals next week, however, so don't expect Halhal to remain in the lineup going forward.
Plays 90 minutes
Halhal generated one tackle (one won) and six clearances in Wednesday's 4-2 victory over Haiti.
Analysis: Halhal would start Wednesday after going unused in the opening two games of the tournament, with Morocco facing some rotation in the group stage finale. He would play the full 90 as he recorded one tackle won and six clearances, although the two goals allowed were a major blemish. He should return to the bench for knockout stage play.
