Three crosses
Zeleny had three crosses (one accurate) and five clearances in Thursday's 2-1 loss versus South Korea.
Analysis: Zeleny started Thursday's match, playing the full 90 minutes at left-wing back. He did not do anything special, but provided solid production on both ends of the pitch, including three crosses on the attack. The 33-year-old was trusted to play the entire match, proving the trust the manager has in him in an important position for Czechia's formation. Zeleny will look to clock in another solid performance Thursday versus South Africa, a must-win match versus the worst-ranked team in the group.
