Busy defensively
Thiaw recorded nine clearances in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool.
Analysis: Thiaw was busy throughout Sunday's draw, sweeping everything up at the back and in the end making nine clearances. He likely won't need to handle that sort of volume in the coming weeks, but it's an excellent start to the season against a tough opponent.
Ends tournament on pitch
Thiaw recorded one clearance in Monday's 1-1 (5-4) penalty shootout loss versus Paraguay.
Analysis: Thiaw got some time in the final minutes of Monday's match, as he entered with 10 minutes to play in extra time. He would only touch the ball a few times, with seven passes completed and one clearance. This suited the defender for much of the tournament, as he would only feature twice for 40 minutes of play, earning two tackles and two clearances.
