Luis Muriel - Plays in friendly Muriel (thigh) came off the bench in Friday's friendly versus Eintracht Frankfurt, Atalanta informs.

Impact Muriel had been a full go in practice right after the break following a four-game absence and he'll be back into the rotation, competing for minutes with Duvan Zapata and Rasmus Hojlund, in January. He has logged one goal, two assists, nine shots (four on target), and 13 chances created in nine appearances.

Teun Koopmeiners - Assists as sub in loss Koopmeiners assisted once to go with zero corners in Friday's 6-5 defeat to Argentina.

Impact Koopmeiners assisted the critical, equalizing goal from a free kick late into stoppage time after coming on during the 46th minute for Marten de Roon. He also converted his penalty attempt during the fateful shootout. Unfortunately those efforts fell just short of a result, and the Dutch are eliminated from the World Cup. Koopmeiners will now likely return to Italy in the near future to rest and train in preparation for the second half of the Serie A season.

Marten De Roon - Plays first half in win De Roon played for the first half of the Dec. 3 win over the United States.

Impact De Roon has started in two straight games after coming off the bench twice to start the World Cup. Given how well the Dutch are playing, De Roon figures to continue starting over Teun Koopmeiners even if he doesn't contribute much in the match.

Mario Pasalic - Starting against Brazil Pasalic made the starting lineup for Friday's match against Brazil.

Impact Pasalic starts with Bruno Petkovic moving to the bench. While the wing isn't normally a position in which Pasalic plays, this will be his first chance to start at the World Cup.

Mario Pasalic - Nets clinching penalty in shootout Pasalic took two off target shots but scored the match clinching penalty in the shootout as Croatia beat Japan in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw through regulation and extra t...

Impact Pasalic entered the match in the 68th minute and stepped up to score the match clinching penalty sending Croatia into the semifinals. The attacker has yet to start a match for his nation in the tournament, but has featured in all four matches taking two shots.

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Mario Pasalic - Backup option for Croatia Pasalic has subbed into each of Croatia's three matches at the World Cup.

Impact Pasalic played a prominent role off the bench during the group stage, twice coming on for at least the final 25 minutes. He should continue as one of the first substitute options for the team heading into the knockout rounds.

DECEMBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marten De Roon - Ready for USA match De Roon is fit and in the starting XI for Saturday's match against the United States.

Impact De Roon is ready after dealing with an illness in the buildup to the match. The midfielder starts in the heart of the Dutch team alongside Frenkie de Jong.

DECEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Davide Zappacosta - Still limited in training Zappacosta (thigh) has been practicing on the side this week, La Gazzetta dello Sport informs.

Impact Zappacosta dealt with multiple thigh injuries in the first half of the season and hasn't gotten past the most recent one yet. He'll continue to be assessed in the next month, but he's not a lock to be ready for the first game after the stoppage.

DECEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Rafael Toloi - Not dealing with serious issue Toloi (back) was a full go in practice once Atalanta got back to work, Prima Bergamo relays.

Impact Toloi was pulled from the starting lineup for the final game before the break because of back spasms, the outlet informs. He shook it off during the time off and will be ready to feature in the upcoming friendlies.

DECEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Muriel - Practicing fully Muriel (thigh) trained regularly with the rest of his teammates after the break, Prima Bergamo informs.

Impact Muriel missed four games before the stoppage due to a thigh injury. He's set to return on the pitch in one of the friendlies prior to the resumption of the league in January.

DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marten De Roon - Suffering from illness De Roon has picked up a cold going through the Dutch team, manager Louis van Gaal has announced ahead of Saturday's match against the United States.

Impact De Roon started one time in three group stage games but this illness is also afflicting Frenkie de Jong, which could leave their team short top midfield options. Pending how the next day goes, the lineup could look quite different if de Roon and de Jong aren't fit enough to start.

DECEMBER 2, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Teun Koopmeiners - Plays off bench in WC group finale Koopmeiners played seven minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 2-0 victory over Qatar.

Impact Koopmeiners returned to the bench for the Dutch and has now only started once in three outings in the groups which gives him very little fantasy appeal for the elimination stages.

NOVEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marten De Roon - Starts finale De Roon started and made four tackles and two interceptions during Tuesday's 2-0 win over Qatar.

Impact De Roon was used off the bench in each of the opening two matches but returned to the starting XI for the finale. The midfielder was excellent throughout the match and in the end had plenty to do offensively. De Roon offers a more defensive option in midfield that could keep him in the starting XI during the knockout stage.

NOVEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Teun Koopmeiners - Logs three tackles in first WC start Koopmeiners had one shot (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Friday's 1-1 tie versus Ecuador.

Impact Koopmeiners also added two aerials won, three tackles (two won) and two interceptions in a very solid all around performance for the Dutch. That was his first start of the WC and if he stays in the starting XI for the group finale he could have even better match up versus the inferior home side of Qatar.

NOVEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marten De Roon - Named to match-day squad De Roon (thigh) was included in the match-day squad for Netherlands' clash with Senegal on Monday.

Impact De Roon missed his club's final match before the international break, which no doubt factored into the decision to keep him on the bench. Even without the injury concerns, De Roon is far from a lock to feature in the starting XI during the rest of the World Cup.

NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Marten De Roon - Pictured in training De Roon (thigh) was pictured in training during Thursday's session.

Impact De Roon was pictured in full team training, taking part in intra-team matches. The midfielder likely won't be straight into the starting XI, but he does provide valuable depth for the Dutch national team. The Netherlands open their World Cup against Senegal on Monday.

Ruslan Malinovskyi - Takes four shots against Inter Malinovskyi won two duels, had one successful take-on, and fired four shots (two on target) in 45 minutes in Sunday's 2-3 loss to Inter.

Impact Malinovskyi came off the well and co-led his team in shots in this one, but he didn't manage to break through. He has mostly had a bench role thus far, registering one goal, two assists, 19 shots (six on target), and 13 chances created in 14 appearances (five starts).

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Joakim Maehle - Creates four chances in Inter bout Maehle drew two fouls and had one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate), and four chances created in Sunday's 2-3 loss to Inter Milan.

Impact Maehle continued his impeccable run to finish the year with another dynamic display where he filled it up offensively, even pacing his side in key passes. He has logged one assist, 15 chances created, 12 crosses (three accurate), and 15 tackles in 14 games (eight starts).

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ederson - Wins three tackles versus Inter Ederson drew one foul and had four tackles (three won), two clearances, and three interceptions in Sunday's 2-3 defeat against Inter Milan.

Impact Ederson had a pretty good Martin De Roon impersonation while replacing the injured teammate in the midfield. He has posted 15 shots (three on target), ten chances created, 25 tackles, and ten interceptions in 13 appearances (eight starts).

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Teun Koopmeiners - Pretty good in Inter clash Koopmeiners created one scoring chance and had three shots (two on goal), six crosses (two accurate), and three corners in Sunday's 2-3 defeat against Inter Milan.

Impact Koopmeiners contributed across the board offensively as he played in a more aggressive role, but he also left something on the table as he was in position to score at least a couple of times. Thanks to a hat-trick, he has bagged four goals and added one assist, 19 chances created, and 54 crosses (16 accurate) in 15 matches. Atalanta will visit Spezia on January 4.

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Duvan Zapata - Misfired versus Inter Zapata had four shots (zero on goal), won one tackle and five duels, and drew one foul in Sunday's 2-3 defeat against Inter Milan.

Impact Zapata started for the second game in a row and co-paced his team in shots, but he had little touch in the box. On the other hand, he drew the PK that led to the opening goal. He'll look to get fitter during the break, but he will probably continue splitting minutes with Luis Muriel and Rasmus Hojlund. He has recorded one goal, 13 shots (four on target), three chances created, and six inaccurate crosses in nine games, as he missed a ton of time with a thigh strain. Atalanta will visit Spezia on January 4.

NOVEMBER 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Ademola Lookman - Scores against Inter Lookman scored one goal to go with two shots (one on target), four crosses (two accurate), and two chances created in Sunday's 2-3 loss against Inter Milan.

Impact Lookman took and buried his second penalty kick in a row, but he had a rather subdued display beside that. He finished the first part of the season on a heater and wound up with seven goals, one assist, 24 shots (11 on target), and 18 chances created in 15 matches (ten starts). Atalanta will visit Spezia on January 4.
