1 assist, 96% passing: Barcelona star’s brilliant international display in stats

Stopper Christensen was for his part in from the off yesterday evening, as Denmark locked horns with Belarus in a World Cup qualifier.

When all was said and done, the Danes emerged dominant victors, by six goals to nil.

And en route to as much, Barcelona’s defensive star proved himself one of the game’s standout performers.

Shining on both sides of the ball, Christensen barely put a foot wrong all evening.

The highlight of his showing came in the form of an assist, but the statistics highlight just how well-rounded the former Chelsea man’s display truly was.

As per Sofascore, Christensen was responsible for the following against Belarus:

  • 1 assist
  • 2 key passes
  • 107/112 accurate passes (96%)
  • 3/4 accurate long balls
