Anchors midfield against Senegal
Tchouameni had three tackles (two won) and two interceptions in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Senegal.
Analysis: Tchouameni anchored the midfield in front of France's back line during a sluggish first half from both teams, helping limit the damage after Mike Maignan's fortunate escape from an own goal. His positioning and ball-winning presence sharpened after the break as France found another gear, helping establish the control that led to Kylian Mbappe and Michael Olise linking up for the opening goal. Tchouameni finished with three tackles (two won) and two clearances, and his defensive discipline will continue to be a key piece of France's push toward the knockout stage.
Poor in loss
Tchouameni registered three shots (zero on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 defeat against Barcelona.
Analysis: Tchouameni took three shots during Sunday's loss, desperate to get on the scoresheet and give his side a hope. In the end he was unable to do so, as all three of his shots went off target and Tchouameni was left with nothing to do in the loss. Tchouameni tends to be more defensively minded, so it's clear the club was throwing everything at the wall when he pops up for three shots.
