Marvin Senaya was arguably Ghana’s standout performer against England last time out, as he locked up Anthony Gordon on the flank. Senaya has proven his quality in the back four, and he also played a key role to help his side beat Panama. As it stands, Ghana are in a solid position to qualify for the knockouts, but Croatia are only one point behind them.
Senaya racked up seven tackles against England, and five tackles against Panama before that. He also committed three fouls across those matches. The 25-year-old has shown a willingness to fly into challenges, and he will have another tough task against Croatia here. So far, Senaya has timed his tackles to perfection, but Martin Baturina will hope to cause him issues. The Croatian forward has drawn nine fouls in his two World Cup starts so far.
