Leandro Trossard continues his amazing form at the World Cup
Leandro Trossard’s impressive form at the World Cup continues as the Arsenal winger assisted Youri Tielemans’ late equaliser.
The Belgian media have been singing his praises following the win and have given him another very solid match rating.
- Nieuwsblad gave him 7/10 and wrote: “Emerged as a calming influence during difficult times – hats off to him. Set up the cross for the 2-2. Was already among the better players before the turnaround.”
- L’Equipe also rated him 7/10 and said: “The most consistent Belgian player at the World Cup rose to the occasion. Notably, he provided the equalising goal for Tielemans with a cross (89th minute) and regularly sought him out, particularly through a heated argument with his captain broadcast worldwide, just before the water break in the second half. He was dangerous at the start of the match because he was bold and incisive. He is one of those who believed until the very end.”
- It was another 7/10 from Voetbalkrant: “He is the Belgian of the tournament. No one needs to doubt that anymore. Trossard is feeling good, and it shows. He has Garcia’s full confidence and is decisive. With an assist again this time.”
The 32-year-old has been key in helping Belgium reach this stage of the tournament, with two goals and one assist.

Leandro Trossard has created more chances at the World Cup than any other player
Trossard has now created more chances at the World Cup than any other player, with 16 in four matches at this tournament.
Arsenal have accepted a £17m bid for Trossard, but that could actually be a big mistake as the Belgian still has so much to offer.
The Gunners should be looking to cash in on players, and taking a good fee on a 32-year-old is good business, but when that player is Trossard, perhaps it could be a mistake.
The Belgian attacker produced many clutch moments last season for Arsenal, and losing him might be a big mistake.
