Busy in defeat

Johnston recorded two shots (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Switzerland.

Analysis: Johnston sent in a pair of chances during a strong showing in a loss to Switzerland. The full-back has plenty to offer on both sides of the ball, but he can be a difference-maker going forward especially. He should be a huge part of the team moving into the knockout stage against top opposition.

11 crosses in 6-0 win

Johnston generated one shot (one on goal), 11 crosses (four accurate) and two corners in Thursday's 6-0 victory over Qatar.

Analysis: Johnston had another game where he was heavily involved and helped Canada to a 6-0 win, despite not having an assist. Shots which came from his crosses were responsible for the first and third goals. His crosses in these two occasions were put on target, but the saved shots came back to a forward and were put into the back of the net by others. He completed four of his crosses and took two corners.
