Impact Tousart was active in midfield, but failed to really make the most of his chances, creating a single chance and putting just a single shot on goal. The midfielder is a solid contributor, but he's not in great form at the moment. Tousart will need to get back to his best if Union want to stay in the Bundesliga moving forward.

Before the 2022-23 Bundesliga, Tousart had never logged more than two goals or multiple assists across a season before.

Impact Tousart got in on the scoring early, drawing the match level early in the first half Friday. The midfielder did well to pounce on a bouncing ball, a strikers instinct that has earned him a career-high four goals through 31 appearances. The midfielder will never be a prolific goal-scorer, but the offensive touch he's shown adds some upside to his stable defensive production.

MAY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Busy in loss Tousart generated one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Bayern Munich.

Impact Tousart shot once during Sunday's loss, while also adding three tackles and a pair of interceptions.

Five interceptions in win over Koln Tousart had one shot on goal and made three clearances, five interceptions and one block during Saturday's 2-0 win over Koln.

Impact Tousart was solid as usual in the middle of the park, being disruptive as usual and frustrating opposing playmakers with his ability to read plays on the fly and his season-high five interceptions were a proof of that. One of Bundesliga's most productive defensive midfielders from a fantasy perspective, Tousart will certainly remain a must-have player for the second half of the season.
