Abdulkerim Bardakci

ANALYSIS
Bardakci almost gifted the United States a goal inside the opening minute with a poor clearance but recovered well and was solid throughout the rest of the game, contributing four tackles, five clearances and one interception as Turkey signed off with a win to at least restore some pride after their early elimination. The centre back ended the tournament as the undisputed starter across all three group stage games, finishing with eight tackles, 18 clearances and two interceptions, though a clean sheet eluded him in every appearance.
