On his left flank, it had not weighed, had contributed too little. He was not the only one, it’s true, but his case is necessarily more commented on because of his liabilities with the Red Devils, or his lack of assets, if we compare them to goals or conclusive actions as he is capable of serving with Arsenal.

Then there was the exclusion of Pellegrini and the reduction of the mark, by De Cuyper, and with… Trossard with the decisive pass. He was in the middle, on goal, he stayed there for the second period and it showed.
Obviously, Belgium’s numerical superiority may have helped, but Trossard appeared as the most prominent Devil, with a goal, his tenth, and more expressive behavior. We saw him address his teammates to tell them where to play, where to position himself or how to serve him.
And he looked for a little more depth, with sharp passes. It was a waste, but he tried. It was the good side of Trossard.
