                  Big effort off the bench
Mertens registered one shot (one on goal), seven crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Tuesday's 1-0 loss versus FC Copenhagen.
                  ANALYSIS
After starting in the last game, Mertens entered the match as a substitute in the 61st minute. He did well to help initiate attacking opportunities but could not find his first points of the UCL season. Despite being unable to contribute to a goal, Mertens continues to provide a valuable effort, with five chances created in 89 minutes played over his last two appearances.
