A member of the midfield ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid was responsible for a stellar individual performance on the international stage on Friday.
The player in question? Aurélien Tchouaméni.
Blancos star Tchouaméni was for his part in from the off yesterday evening, as France locked horns with Ukraine in a World Cup qualifying fixture.
And the 25-year-old, fresh off being nominated for Real Madrid Player of the Month for August, only carried forth his recent stretch of fine form.
Tchouaméni’s standout moment came in the form of a defence-splitting assist for club teammate Kylian Mbappé to put France two goals to the good.
His overall performance, though, was so much more.
Dominating from his berth at the base of the French midfield, the former AS Monaco talent, over the course of the 90 minutes, managed the following:
- 1 assist
- 64/67 accurate passes (96%)
- 5/7 accurate long balls
- 3 big chances created
- 7/9 ground duels won
- 6 tackles
