The 21-year-old Borussia Monchengladbach player is of a host of exceptional number 10s on display at the World Cup.
It has been "James Rodriguez this, James Rodriguez that" - but there's other nice young players in this match, of whom is Switzerland attacking midfielder Granit Xhaka.
He works around the right-hand side of the pitch and provides great support for fellow attackers Xherdan Shaqiri, Josip Drmic and Haris Seferovic, and is keen to get in to the box as often as feasible - making six runs in to the area in the 2-1 win over Ecuador.
Xhaka was of his team's few bright sparks in the 5-2 defeat by France - scoring a amazing low volley from a ball played over the top.
However, he might must repress his instincts to drive forward against Xhaka and his team-mates, who displayed their prowess in assault in the coursework of their final group match - a 3-0 win over Honduras.
Up against him will be left-back Marcos Rojo. The 24-year-old Sporting Lisbon player scored objective and made nine runs/deliveries in to the attacking third against Nigeria in the thrilling 3-2 win.
