Creates once chance in Senegal bout
Aursnes registered one cross (one accurate), one tackle (zero won) and one cross (zero won) and created one scoring chance in Monday's 3-2 win against Senegal.
Analysis: Aursnes wasn't too visible but did more than in the opener, even though he was yanked at the interval to make way for Patrick Berg, who had an assist and slightly outplayed him overall. He wasn't great in the passive phase in this one, likely leading to the early sub. He might have to fight for minutes going forward. He has notched at least one tackle and one clearance in the first two games, piling up three of each.
Limited impact in midfield
Aursnes generated two tackles (one won) and two clearances in Tuesday's 4-1 win versus Iraq.
Analysis: Aursnes earned his expected starting spot for Norway following appearances in the previous two friendlies, though his job on the night was almost entirely defensive, with little involvement in the box and no shots or chances created to show for it. He did register two tackles and two clearances, and was efficient in possession with 27 of 29 passes completed.
