Another cross and tackle
Iqbal logged one cross (zero accurate) and won one tackle during Iraq's 5-0 loss Friday against Senegal.
Analysis: During the World Cup's group stage, Iqbal logged two starts across three games, with his first and only non-start much earlier this tournament. For each start, he not only attempted one cross but also won a tackle. Overall, Iqbal's tournament effort features two tackles won, an accurate corner and a chance created, unsurprisingly limited considering his team and position.
Active in first WC start
Iqbal generated one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Monday's 3-0 loss to France.
Analysis: Iqbal ranked second among Iraq players and fifth in the game with 66 accurate passes against France. The midfielder also took one corner kick and attempted a couple of dribbles throughout the match. After taking over the starting spot from a more offensive-minded Ali Al Hamadi, Iqbal will push for increased involvement in the more favorable clash against Senegal.
