Third-place lane
The current third-place cut line is still the three-point tier: Scotland, Paraguay and Sweden lead the pack of teams sitting outside automatic places. Belgium's draw-heavy start keeps them in the next tier on 2 points, level with Cape Verde but ahead on goal difference; New Zealand's loss leaves the All Whites below that lane on 1 point. 3
Scorers, creators and keepers
| Race | Current leaders | Movement from Egypt-New Zealand |
|---|---|---|
| Golden Boot | Jonathan David, Lionel Messi and Deniz Undav remain the three-goal leaders. 4 | Salah's 67th-minute winner does not change the top tier, but Egypt's three second-half goals add Zico, Salah and Trézéguet to the tournament scoring sheet. 1 |
| Assists | Alexander Isak leads with 3 assists; Chris Wood, Julio Enciso, Mohamed Salah, Ryan Gravenberch, Denzel Dumfries, Joshua Kimmich, Brahim Díaz and Deniz Undav are in the two-assist group. 5 | FOX now lists Salah with 2 assists as well as 1 goal, which puts him into the main creator chase. 5 |
| Golden Glove watch | Unai Simón and Raúl Rangel remain the only keepers listed with 2 clean sheets. 6 | No clean sheet came out of Vancouver. Max Crocombe and Mostafa Shoubir each made 4 saves in a 3-1 match. 2 |

What to watch next
Group G is now the cleanest knockout-race board on the slate.
