Forget Ziyech, Here Is Chelsea Star Who Has Surprised Everyone In The World Cup
2 min read
Chelsea winger Hakim Ziyech has been terrific in the World Cup for Morocco despite having struggles with the Premier League club this season. The 29-year-old was a key player for his nation reaching the competition’s semifinals where they lost to France who are the current defending champions.
Hakim Ziyech was vital in the good run where they eliminated some of the giant countries in football like Spain and Portugal in the knockout stages. He looked alive in the World Cup after failing to make it to the first eleven for Graham Potter this season.
The Moroccan international has proved why he is still one of the most lethal right-wingers in the Premier League. He is highly gifted, incredible in creativity, good at free kicks, and can also score some spectacular goals.
However, despite his remarkable form for Morocco in the World Cup, he was not the only Chelsea player who impressed in the tournament. United States star Christian Pulisic was also exceptional for his nation in the competition and helped them reach the round of 16.
Pulisic was amazing for his nation and he could turn into a legend for the USA in the coming years as he has proved he has what it takes to become a great player. The 24-year-old started in every game for the United States in the World Cup and had a great impact on his nation.
