EN-NESYRI THREATS FRANCE
En-Nesyri has scored two goals so far in the 2022 World Cup, the first against Canada in the group stage and the second against Portugal, something that is already history of the tournament. The goal from the Sevilla forward helped his team to become the first African team to qualify for the semifinals of a World Cup. He did it with an unlikely jump in which he headed a ball centered into the area. The Moroccan is a good player in the open field thanks to his speed but he also dominates the passing game. In defense, he is the first player under pressure and is a key piece for his team to regain possession.
