Three crosses Tuesday
Perisic generated three crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 1-0 victory against Panama.
Analysis: After an excellent opening match last week versus England, Perisic wasn't as effective in the win over Panama. He recorded three crosses and created one chance on the attack, but nothing that truly threatened Panama's solid defense. He helped keep a much-needed clean sheet though, recording four clearances and winning three duels in his full 90 minutes of action. He's set to start again in the final match of the group stage versus Ghana on Saturday, a must-win match in order to finish second in the group.
Assists, sends six crosses in loss
Perisic assisted once to go with six crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 4-2 defeat to England.
Analysis: Perisic set up Petar Musa's goal at the end of the first half, but he was also a constant playmaking threat on the left wing with his six crosses. He was forced to cover a lot of ground due to tactical reasons, but Perisic still delivered a solid line while also boosting his numbers with corners and set-piece involvement. Expect Perisic to remain in the XI -- and possibly in a more advanced role -- in the upcoming group-stage matches.
