Maya Yoshida - Exceptional in tight loss Yoshida made six clearances and blocked three shots during Tuesday's 1-0 loss to Spain.

Impact Yoshida helped his Olympic team concede just two goals in five matches en route to a bronze medal matchup with Mexico. He'll face a similarly talented opponent in this matchup as well, so Yoshida should have more to offer in his final Olympic game this summer.

Maya Yoshida - Strings together best performance Yoshida took one shot (none on target) and intercepted four times in the 1-0 shootout win against New Zealand on Saturday.

He knows when to stay back and when to join the attack. Surprisingly, he does not accumulate many tackles, but his clearances are off the charts. If you need interceptions and clearances you do not need anyone other than Yoshida.
