Concedes three in Wednesday's loss
Abunada recorded three saves and allowed three goals, but also 0 an own goal in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat against Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Analysis: Abunada's rough World Cup continued Wednesday as he conceded three goals in the final match of the group stage. The loss eliminates Qatar from the competition as last place in Group B. Abunada conceded two goals in the first half, one of which went down as an own goal against him but was more so the fault of his defender Sultan Al Brake. He finishes his first World Cup with 10 goals conceded -- currently the most of any nation -- and 12 saves across three starts.
Concedes six
Abunada recorded four saves and allowed six goals in Thursday's 6-0 defeat to Canada.
Analysis: Abunada endured a difficult evening in Canada's 6-0 defeat of Qatar, making four saves and four clearances, but also committing an error that directly led to a goal. The final score reflects poorly on him, but he was part of a defensive unit that repeatedly allowed Canada to create high-quality opportunities, evidenced by the 4.85 xGOT he faced. His distribution also struggled under Canada's aggressive pressure, completing just 11 of 30 passes.
