Hit: Kalidou Koulibaly
Ad

Koulibaly is another one who outclassed Poland.

A solid, titanic figure at the back, the centre-half stood up to almost every challenge that was thrown at him. Firstly, he was safe as a house. He cleared his lines, looked for a long ball and passed around comfortably.
He also kept Lewandowski in check for the most part of the game, man-marking the striker to near perfection.
He won the aerial duels and took care of the crosses. Due to his sheer brilliance, the Bayern Munich forward touched the ball in Senegal's penalty area just over twice in the first-half.

Tactically too, Koulibaly was sharp and sinewy.
