Takes three corners in win Kroos had one shot not on target, three corners and four interceptions in Saturday's 4-2 win against Portugal.
Impact Kroos had a better fantasy performance in the loss against France, which only highlights his lack of upside. He's not a major threat to hit the back of the net with most of his fantasy value tied to set pieces. While he had five tackles won and four interceptions in different matches, that may not be something to expect every game.

Impact Kroos was very active here and delivered a solid stat output in some formats. He can be a threat on goal at any time and set pieces also give him chances for assists and increase his peripheral stats significantly. Facing Portugal and Hungary next should be easier offensive match ups and Germans will be hoping to get some goals finally and Kroos will be one of the main hopes to create scores.
