#2 Worst - Andreas Cornelius

FBL-WC-2018-MATCH52-CRO-DEN
Cornelius was a huge let down for the Danish

Andreas Cornelius was basically isolated in the Round of 16 as the towering centre-forward had just 18 touches before being taken off midway during the second half following a disappointing outing.

The Atalanta striker was dynamic in the air, winning a total of four aerial duels and linked up well with his fellow attackers as his hold-up play turned out to be decent at times.

However, Cornelius was incapable to turn his aerial strength into anything substantial and finished with no attempts at goal. He played a very limited part in the game and at the same time, lacked service as Denmark failed to utilise his physical presence in the box until he was replaced by Nicolai Jorgensen in the 65th minute.
