Assists off bench versus England

Upamecano assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 6-4 defeat against England.

Analysis: Upamecano delivered the final touch before Ousmane Dembele's stoppage-time goal, turning a limited defensive performance into a decent fantasy outing. The defender played a consistent role in the middle of the back line during the tournament, with his averages of 1.9 interceptions and 3.4 clearances per game ranking first and second, respectively, on the squad.

Solid outing in round of 16

Upamecano had four tackles (three won), four clearances and four interceptions in Saturday's 1-0 win over Paraguay.

Analysis: Upamecano stood out for his one-on-one efficiency as he won seven of his 10 duels in addition to his diverse defensive production during the victory. He also earned a clean sheet for the third time across five starts in the 2026 World Cup. He's likely to stay in the initial lineup and play as many minutes as possible in the next round against Morocco, looking to contribute through pass accuracy and a variety of defensive stats.
