Defensive Duels

Tomori

Being in more one-on-one battles with opponents doesn’t necessarily mean you are a better defender. Sometimes it is wiser to not engage with opponents and keep your defensive line.

However, if we look at the percentage won by each defender we can see who copes better with dangerous situations. In this area, Tomori is the winner with 74.17% with Christensen (72.07%) and Zouma (66.03%) trailing. Tomori’s pace and strength certainly help him on this metric.
