This was reported by the Sofascore Football portal.
In the group stage match against Paraguay (4:1), all 83 passes made by Richards were accurate. As the source notes, no player who made at least 80 passes in a single game had previously achieved 100% accuracy in this category. Statistics have been tracked since 1966.
