Forced off with injury
Mazraoui was forced off due to injury in the 29th minute of Sunday's friendly against Norway, according to ESPN.NL.
Analysis: Mazraoui would need to come off the field early Sunday as he played in a friendly ahead of the World Cup, leaving fans concerned he could be missing time during the tournament. Not much has been released on his condition, but the hope will be that it is only a minor injury and he was removed due to caution. He is slated to be a starting left-back during the tournament, so this would be a major blow, leaving Youssef Belammari as a possible replacement.
Season high three chances created
Mazraoui had four tackles (three won), five clearances and one interception in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Sunderland.
Analysis: Mazraoui was handed the start ahead of Diogo Dalot at right-back and made an impact at both ends of the pitch. Defensively, he led his side with four tackles (three won) along with five clearances and one interception. Going forward, he was also effective, creating a season-high three chances after not registering any since December, surpassing his total of just two chances created in the league this season in a single match.
