Pedri - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates | FOX Sports

Starts against Portugal Pedri recorded one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Monday's 1-0 win against Portugal.

Impact Pedri didn't stick out that much in Monday's win, as the midfielder had a decently quiet contest. He would notch one shot, a chance created and a cross to go along with 55 completed passes, not doing much to alter the attack. He would earn a tackle and an interception in the clean sheet effort, doing well in the anchor role as usual. He is still without a goal contribution this World Cup, with an assist much more likely than a goal if he were to earn one.

Minimal impact in win Pedri generated three tackles (two won) in Thursday's 3-0 victory versus Austria.

Impact Even though Rodri is often deployed as the holding midfielder in Spain, Pedri didn't do much going forward aside from creating one chance. His 65 passes were his highest mark since the 86 passes he made against Saudi Arabia, but his lack of involvement in the final third undoubtedly limits his fantasy appeal in most formats.

One chance created Pedri had one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Friday's 1-0 win versus Uruguay.

Impact Pedri would start and play 60 as Spain defeated Uruguay, not seeing too much work in the win.

Impact Pedri unsurprisingly started Spain's opening match of the World Cup, completing an elite midfield alongside Rodri and Fabian Ruiz. He served as the creative fulcrum of the team, finishing the match with team highs in chances created (five), crosses (11) and corners (eight). None of that production led to a goal though, as Spain's attack with consistently frustrated by Cape Verde's low block. While Pedri was undoubtedly impressive, he will need to do even more to get Spain's attack humming. As one of the favorites and a possession-happy team, this will not be the last team Spain faces that will sit back and absorb the pressure. Pedri will need to be at his best to beat that block with his elite passing ability.
