Weak performance in loss
Bayesh recorded one tackle (zero won) and one clearance in Monday's 3-0 defeat to France.
Analysis: Bayesh failed to make an impact on the left wing, featuring in more of a defensive role while he faced difficult duels against Ousmane Dembele and Jules Kounde. Despite starting in each of the first two World Cup matches, Bayesh remains without a goal or assist from one shot (none on target) and one chance created. He can't be expected to improve significantly as part of an underdog team, but he may have better chances of producing versus a vulnerable Senegal side in the final group contest.
Four crosses made
Bayesh generated one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Tuesday's 4-1 loss against Norway.
Analysis: Bayesh displayed strong play from the right side in Tuesday's match against Norway, recording a 94 percent pass accuracy and delivering four crosses. While he was less effective defensively, winning only 49 percent of his duels with one tackle and two clearances, he remains a big physical presence, especially maintaining an 86 percent aerial duel win rate this season with Al-Dhafra in the Saudi Pro League, a skill set that could be vital in upcoming physical contests against France and Senegal.
