Likely plays final World Cup De Bruyne generated two shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Friday's 2-1 defeat against Spain. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 85th minu...

Impact De Bruyne was back in the starting role for Belgium as they faced Spain after going unused against the USA. The veteran would play 86 minutes, notching two shots and a cross in the loss. He goes home from the World Cup with not his best tournament, as his age is possibly catching up with him, only earning one goal on 20 shots and zero assists on 10 chances created. That said, this will likely end his international career, as the midfielder would be 39 when the next World Cup comes around.

Taken off after 56 minutes De Bruyne registered two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 3-2 victory against Senegal.

Impact De Bruyne was not too involved in Wednesday's match despite the win, as he was taken off in the 56th minute in a shocking move. He would record a few shots and crosses to go along with a chance created in his time on the field, although his actions were not enough to change the tide. With Belgium finding its momentum once he was off the field, it does raise some questions heading into the round of 16, but it would likely bring even more questions if he didn't remain a starter.

Scores goal in victory De Bruyne scored one goal to go with seven shots (two on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and six corners in Friday's 5-1 victory versus New Zealand.

Impact De Bruyne capped Belgium's dominant performance with the third goal in the 66th minute, becoming just the second Belgian player to score at three different FIFA World Cups (2014, 2018 and 2026), matching the milestone Romelu Lukaku reached earlier in the same match. He pulled the strings from start to finish, tallying seven shots (two on target) and four chances created while dictating the tempo of an attack that piled up 35 shots, the third-most Belgium have ever recorded in a World Cup match. De Bruyne's masterclass was at the heart of the Red Devils' emphatic 5-1 win, sealing top spot in Group G.

Most creative player on pitch De Bruyne generated five shots (one on goal), 10 crosses (two accurate) and three corners in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Iran.

Impact De Bruyne was Belgium's most creative force in Sunday's goalless draw with Iran, registering five shots (one on target), three corners, three key passes, ten crosses (two accurate) and one tackle across 87 minutes before being replaced by Matias Fernandez-Pardo as Belgium pushed desperately for a late winner. The midfielder's best moment came in the second half when his precise cutback found Maxim De Cuyper at point-blank range, only for Alireza Beiranvand to produce a remarkable reflex save that denied what appeared to be a certain goal, and he also forced Beiranvand into a strong stop with a long-range effort earlier in the match. With Belgium needing a win against New Zealand to avoid a second consecutive group stage elimination, De Bruyne's ability to unlock defensive blocks with his delivery, movement and shooting from distance will be the key factor in determining whether this Belgian generation finally delivers at a major tournament.

Leads attack with four shots De Bruyne recorded four shots (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Monday's 1-1 draw versus Egypt.

Impact De Bruyne was Belgium's most dangerous creative presence in Monday's 1-1 draw with Egypt, registering four shots (one on target), two corners, four crosses and a free kick that struck the outside of the post in the second half before Lukaku's introduction changed the match. The Napoli midfielder controlled the tempo from a central attacking role and was consistently involved in Belgium's best attacking moments, combining with Leandro Trossard and Youri Tielemans to probe an Egyptian defensive block that sat deep and conceded space only in transition. His ability to deliver from dead balls, drive into the box and create from deep make him Belgium's single most important player at this tournament, and a more clinical finishing performance from his teammates will be needed if his creative output is to translate into results.
