Wins Man of the Match

Rodri had one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 1-0 win against Portugal.

Analysis: Rodri was handed the Man of the Match by FIFA on Monday, contributing on both sides of the ball in his anchor role. He would earn a shot, a chance created and one cross in the attack, although his defensive efforts in the clean sheet were more impressive, notching a clearance and four tackles won. He also completed 87 passes as he always remains around the ball, having completed 85 passes or more in all five games this World Cup.

Holding presence in midfield

Rodri registered one shot (zero on goal) and two chances created in Thursday's 3-0 victory against Austria.

Analysis: Rodri logged a full 90 for a third consecutive game, and he was the defensive anchor the team needed in midfield. The Manchester City playmaker has racked up 13 tackles, six clearances and two interceptions in four World Cup starts while also helping Spain record four straight clean sheets. His holding role limits his fantasy upside, though.
