@pechefootball: Some Really Interesting World Cup Stats 📊 Everyone knows Lionel Messi finished the group stage with 6 goals, but some of the most interesting World Cup group stats came from players almost nobody expected. Canada’s Eustáquio completed the most crosses with 27, while Alexander Isak, Michael Olise and Bruno Guimarães finished top of the assists chart with 3 each. The running stats are the most interesting. Ismaël Saibari made 220 sprints in just three group stage matches. That's more than 73 sprints per game and over 40 more than Australia's Jordy Bos in second place. Jordan midfielder Mohannad Alrawabdeh also covered the most distance of any player at 38.4 km (23.9 miles), which is almost the length of a marathon. But the most surprising stat might be this: Tunisia's Hannibal Mejbri was fouled more times than Vinícius Jr, Kylian Mbappé, Lionel Messi or Lamine Yamal. #Soccer #football #WorldCup #Messi #Stats
