Two crosses in WC opener

Owusu recorded two crosses (zero accurate) and three tackles in Wednesday's 1-0 win against Panama.

Analysis: Owusu started in Ghana's three-man midfield in Wednesday's opener, joining Caleb Yerenkyi and Kamaldeen Sulemana. His contributions were easy to miss as he did not contribute much on either end of the pitch, rather simply acting as a traditional central midfielder versus Panama. He still helped keep a clean sheet during his time on the pitch as he won three duels, two tackles and made one clearance before he was replaced by Kwasi Sibo in the 78th minute. He will likely have more defensive responsibilities Tuesday versus England, a side that will try to dominate possession and pepper the Ghana goal with shots.
