Provides assist in Tunisia tilt
Reijnders assisted once to go with three shots (two on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and five corners in Thursday's 3-1 win against Tunisia.
Analysis: Reijnders padded his stats thanks to a robust number of corner kicks and generated two of the goals in such a fashion, the first one following a flick-on, gathering a secondary assist, while the second one directly, finding Jan Paul van Hecke in the crowd. He came very close to scoring with a beautiful lob in the second half, but it hit the crossbar. He paced his side in crosses and chances created. He has tallied at least one delivery, amassing 15 (five accurate), and one corner, piling up 10, in all three fixtures, adding three shots (one two on target) and key passes.
Busy outing in midfield
Reijnders generated one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 5-1 victory versus Sweden.
Analysis: Reijnders was active and industrious during his 59 minutes in Saturday's 5-1 win over Sweden, registering one shot, one corner, one cross and two aerial duel wins as the left-sided midfielder in coach Ronald Koeman's 4-3-3 before being replaced by Guus Til as the Netherlands managed the game in the second half. The midfielder contributed consistently in the pressing phases and was involved in multiple sequences that pushed Sweden back into their own half, and his delivery from dead-ball situations gave the Netherlands additional set-piece variety throughout the first period. His energy and technical quality from wide midfield positions make him an important rotation option heading into the knockout stage, and his ability to operate in tight spaces will be valuable against the deeper defensive blocks the Netherlands are likely to encounter from the round of 32 onwards.
