Abdallah Nasib

Strong at back against Algeria

Nasib generated three tackles (three won) and seven clearances in Monday's 2-1 defeat versus Algeria.

Analysis: Nasib was physically dominant throughout Monday's 1-2 defeat to Algeria, winning six duels, making three tackles (all won) and contributing two blocks across 90 minutes as the right centre-back in Jordan's back three, completing 16 passes and maintaining his individual defensive battles against Algeria's attackers until the late corners undid a disciplined collective effort. His aerial ability, physicality and defensive resilience make him an important pillar of Jordan's system, and his performances across both group games suggest he is capable of competing consistently at World Cup level.
