Impact Hummels was not guaranteed to play against Hungary because of his knee injury. Though the center-back underwhelmed on defense, he logged an assist and preserved one crucial point.

Mats Hummels - Records assist Hummels (knee) recorded one assist with two chances during a 2-2 draw Wednesday versus Hungary.
Thomas Delaney - Starts in win Delaney created one chance and conceded a yellow card during Monday's 4-1 win over Russia.
Impact Delaney started all three group stage games but his five shots taken are dampened by the seven fouls conceded and this booking. Fortunately the Danish are still alive in the tournament and Delaney provides average value as a starter.

Jadon Sancho - Finally gets chance Sancho played in six minutes off the bench during Tuesday's 1-0 win over the Czech Republic.
Impact Sancho has gone from out of the team, to left on the bench and finally on the field over three offensively-disappointing games for an exceptionally talented English roster. Unless his name pops up in the starting lineup for a knockout game, Sancho's value isn't going to be as high over the rest of the Euros as he has been at club level.

Thorgan Hazard - Back in training Hazard (knee) is training ahead of Sunday's Round of 16 match, according to HLN.
Impact It looks like Hazard should again be an option Sunday if he can get a couple more days of full training in. He wasn't risked in the final group match and should be available to start, assuming he gets the job now that Kevin De Bruyne is in the squad. Despite playing on the wing, he totaled just one cross in two starts.

Mats Hummels - Returns to training Hummels (knee) returned to training Tuesday ahead of Wednesday's match against Hungary, reports Frankfurter Rundschau.
Impact Hummels may have just been rested Monday, as it looks like he's fit and ready for Wednesday's match. He's started each of the first two contests and is expected to remain there against Hungary, as Germany look to add another three points in their final group match.

Thorgan Hazard - Misses Finland match Hazard was not in the squad for Monday's match against Finland because of a "minor injury," according to manager Roberto Martinez.
Impact This only looks like a precautionary move for Hazard, who wasn't needed with Belgium not needing a win to advance in their group. Leandro Trossard took his spot on the wing, but it's expected Hazard will return to his role once knockouts begin.

Mats Hummels - Not training Monday Hummels wasn't involved in Monday's training session because of a knee issue, but he's expected to return Tuesday and be ready for Wednesday's match.
Impact This isn't great news for Hummels with Germany's final group match a couple days away. He'll try and get back in training Tuesday and then return to the XI Wednesday. If not, Niklas Sule or Emre Can would likely draw a start on the back line against Hungary.

Thorgan Hazard - Scores against Denmark Hazard bagged a goal in Thursday's 2-1 win over Denmark.
Impact Hazard started on the left side of the midfield once again but found a way to make an impact offensively, as he scored the equalizer in the second half following a great assist from Kevin De Bruyne. The Dortmund playmaker doesn't have the freedom he usually has at club level when playing for Belgium, but performances like this make him a useful player across most formats. Expect him to remain in the XI for the group-stage finale against Finland.

Axel Witsel - Makes bench Thursday Witsel (Achilles) is on the bench for Thursday's match against Denmark.
Impact Witsel hasn't played since January because of a ruptured Achilles and he's only expected to be a bench option in this tournament. Still, it's a good sign in his recovery and he gives Belgium another defensive midfield option if needed.

Manuel Akanji - Puts up numbers in Italy match Akanji had three interceptions and five clearances, won five duels and one of two tackles in Wednesday's 0-3 loss to Italy.
Impact Akanji had his hands full in the back since Switzerland were forced to defend for most of the match. He had tallied three tackles, three interceptions, seven clearances and two blocks in the first two contests, with no clean sheets. They will take on Turkey Sunday.

Mats Hummels - Nets own goal for defeat Hummels scored an own goal but hauled in one shot (off target), three aerials won and three interceptions in Tuesday's 1-0 loss to France.
Impact Hummels made a horrible attempt for a clearance of a cut back ball and instead of preventing the danger he sent the ball in his own net for the lone goal in the match. Two disallowed goals saved the German back line from a disastrous start of the campaign but the team has been very poor in the back of late and any defender in the squad would be a risky fantasy option, especially against the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes in the next match.

Raphael Guerreiro - Scores against Hungary Guerreiro scored a goal on one shot in Portugal's 3-0 victory over Hungary on Tuesday.
Impact Guerreiro was able to break the deadlock with Hungary in the 84th minute. The left-back won't offer as much fantasy value as he does with Borussia Dortmund considering Bruno Fernandes figures to see the bulk of the free-kicks but he'll continue to push the attack from the backline and get up into the attacking third, making him a decent fantasy target in upcoming clashes with Germany and France.

Jadon Sancho - Left out for first game Sancho was omitted for Sunday's 1-0 win over Croatia.
Impact Sancho wasn't even on the bench for the first game as Phil Foden and Raheem Sterling started on the wings. Expect him to get a chance at some point in the tournament as there are too many talented attackers to completely omit for England.

Thorgan Hazard - Starting at left wing back Hazard took an on target shot, crossed once inaccurately and made two interceptions during Saturday's 3-0 win over Russia.
Impact Hazard was held off the scoresheet from his role as the starting left wing back. The wide man finished with the second highest amount of shots and crosses on the team, while his two interceptions were the team-high total in the win.

Thomas Meunier - Impactful as substitute Meunier scored a goal with his lone shot and added an assist while crossing twice inaccurately and creating two chances during Saturday's 3-0 win over Russia.
Impact Meuneir replaced the injured Timothy Castagne in the 27th minute and made an impact by scoring in the 34th and adding an assist in the 88th. The wide man's two crosses and two chances created were both team-high totals in the match.
JUNE 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Axel Witsel - Not traveling for opener Witsel (Achilles) is not traveling to Russia for Belgium's opening match on Saturday.
Impact It looks like Witsel still has an issue with his Achilles unless something else brewed up in the past couple weeks. He was strangely included in the squad despite not appearing since January because of a ruptured Achilles. Given that absence, there's no reason to think he competes for Belgium in the Euros.
