Nahuel Molina - Wins one tackle in victory Molina won one tackle and made one interception during Sunday's World Cup final win over France after penalties.
Impact Molina didn't have to make many big plays but was a reliable piece of Argentina's third World Cup win with six starts in seven appearances. As he scored once and logged one assist in that time, Molina is certainly capable of offensive contributions he hasn't shown at club level since joining Atletico Madrid.

Rodrigo De Paul - Takes two shots in win De Paul took two shots (one on goal) and created one chance in 102 minutes of Sunday's World Cup final win over France after penalties.
Impact De Paul drew six fouls and did the hard work of absorbing as much pressure as he could so the attack could thrive. As the enforcer and protector for Lionel Messi in the 2021 Copa America win and now a World Cup, De Paul's value isn't seen in the stat sheet lately but tends to result in great things in the right places. Following some poor showings for club side Atletico Madrid, De Paul can use his efforts in Qatar as a springboard for the rest of the season.
