1:47 Trent Alexander-Arnold was dumped out of the FIFA 2020 Stay and Play Cup after losing in the quarter-finals to Djurgardens’ Jesper Karlstrom on the golden-goal rule
However, the Liverpool full-back showed his capabilities on the console in the FIFA #StayAndPlay Cup, progressing to the quarter-finals only succumbing to Djurgarden player Jesper Karlstrom via the golden-goal method after drawing 2-2 in regulation time.
That form looks fairly strong considering the Scandinavian players in this tournament filled all four semi-final spots.
Phillip Billing (Bournemouth)
Continuing the Scandinavian theme, the Danish giant is a supreme talent and should go very deep in the tournament if replicating his recent form in the STAY INtertoto Cup.
Billing topped his group with an unblemished record accounting for an Andros Townsend (Crystal Palace), Jason Cummings (Shrewsbury) and Harry McKirdy (Carlisle) winning by a combined aggregate score of 16-2 in those matches. He then sealed his place in the last 16 with a two-legged 10-5 victory over Leicester’s James Maddison, who is regarded as a solid player. His opponent on Tuesday, Angus Gunn, representing Southampton could be in for a schooling.
