Shines despite loss
Wan-Bissaka had one cross (zero accurate) and five tackles in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat against Colombia.
Analysis: Wan-Bissaka was DR Congo's most impressive defensive performer in Tuesday's 1-0 defeat to Colombia, winning three of his five tackles and registering three interceptions across his 90 minutes as the right wingback in a system that required him to track Johan Mojica's overlapping runs while also contributing in transition. The right-back completed 15 passes and made two duels wins in what was a disciplined and combative performance that demonstrated why he remains one of the best one-on-one defenders in the competition, with his tackling success rate the highest of any outfield player on the pitch from either side. His defensive intensity, one-on-one ability and work rate along the right flank make him DR Congo's most reliable defensive option in the wide areas, and his performances across both group games have reinforced his importance to a Leopards side that will need every defensive asset available in the must-win finale against Uzbekistan.
Two crosses from right-back
Wan-Bissaka recorded two crosses (zero accurate) and two tackles in Wednesday's 1-1 draw versus Portugal.
Analysis: Wan-Bissaka sent in a pair of crosses during Wednesday's draw, doing well in his limited chances to get forward. In a match that Portugal largely controlled, Wan-Bissaka had few chances to get forward but he at least sent in search passes when he did get forward. Wan-Bissaka has more offensive upside if he's given the chance to push against lesser opposition.
