Eight clearances despite exit
Mechele generated two tackles (zero won), eight clearances and two interceptions in Friday's 2-1 defeat versus Spain.
Analysis: Mechele was decent in the defense despite two goals allowed and an end to Belgium's World Cup campaign, recording two tackles, two intercpetions and eight clearances. That said, the defender didn't leave the field once for Belgium this World Cup, notching four interceptions, seven tackles and 40 clearances in the defense. However, he would only earn one clean sheet, as Belgium did have a rough tournament outside of the win over the USA.
Solid in the back against USA
Mechele had two tackles (one won) and five clearances and committed one foul in Monday's 4-1 win over USA.
Analysis: Mechele wasn't under too much pressure and did a nice job in shackling down Folarin Balogun throughout the fixture, putting up stats in the back, even though Belgium were once again unable to secure a clean sheet. He has recorded at least five clearances in all five contests, racking up 32 and posting five tackles (four won), two interceptions and two blocks and helping blank the opponents once during that stretch. On the other hand, he failed to take a shot after doing so in the previous four bouts.
