Attempts two shots in loss

Gueye had two shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Monday's 3-2 loss versus Norway.

Analysis: Gueye missed a couple of distance shots when he had a chance to push forward from a holding midfield role Monday. Other than that, he stood out for a 90 percent pass accuracy throughout the match. He's likely to retain a starting role going forward, with most of his value coming from defensive and possession stats, as well as the occasional long-range strikes.
