All-around effort in loss
Freeman had two shots (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 4-1 loss versus Belgium.
Analysis: Freeman was perhaps the most active member of a shaky defensive unit in Monday's game. Despite the goals conceded, the Villarreal man managed to contribute through several offensive stats and 10 duels won over 90 minutes on the field. During the entire World Cup, he scored one goal and an assist, and also focused on defensive tasks across considerable stretches of games, tallying 15 clearances and 14 tackles in 373 minutes of play.
Two tackles Wednesday
Freeman recorded one shot (zero on goal) in Wednesday's 2-0 victory over Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Analysis: Freeman was back in his right-back role after he was rested in the last match, as he sat on a yellow card, playing the full 90 minutes. He would record a clearance, two interceptions and a few tackles in the defense as the USMNT notched a clean sheet, a solid day. He will be set to remain a starter heading into the round of 16, being a rising talent in the squad during this World Cup.
