Courtois: He could not do anything in Kike García's goal despite how high he is. The auction was perfect.
Carvajal: His presence after overcoming the injury has been very noticeable in the team's performance. He is one of them captains, he has weight on and off the field. Only one mole, he did not hit the pass in a clear against, it was a five for three.
Varane: What has happened to this player this season (better, since his failure against City) is an unsolved mystery. Kike García's goal begins with him, in a pass that he gives to Lucas Vázquez. Then, at 59 ', he had another gross error at the start.
Ramos: Lights and shadows. A high foul by little, some quick crossing and some big mistake at the start like the one that almost cost Madrid a goal, but Inui missed. At the end of the game, an involuntary hand from him led to a controversial play. In '92 he saved Madrid … that's why he's the captain.
Mendy: Well, solid as always. The left wing is yours. Raises with danger and some punctual error in the exit of the ball.
Casemiro: Went by unnoticed.
Modric: Masterful until the gasoline ran out. Its first part was anthological. He and Benzema are seen enjoying together when they are in the field. The Frenchman gave him a goal. Then, the Croatian Ballon d'Or gave Benzema another sung but the French crossed too much head on. Modric has to renew, is an example.
Kroos: Very good as always, but less dedicated on the field to effort than Modric. Attentive in his position the German to defend and very accurate in the pass. What a ball he put Rodrygo in the second half! He gave Benzema another goal but it was offside.
Lucas Vazquez: A game a little more gray than what we were getting used to, but it is logical because it is one of the ones that is suffering the most wear and tear and one that gives more on the pitch. And he had a prize marking the third at the end of the game.
Benzema: He is in the prime of his career. Elegant, decisive, precise … It's nice to see him play. And above it is delivered. That play in which he comes down to defend the fallen sprint to the band in the first half should not go unnoticed. Great goal from Rodrygo's pass. The 33 years have been very good for him.
Rodrygo: Super Laudrup assist to Benzema in 1-0, then he missed a sung goal in one on one against Dimitrovic, The pass was from Kroos. The small Brazilian shows much more reliability than Vinicius when Zidane gives him the opportunity.
DOCK.
Valverde: It gave a little air to Madrid in the center of the field.
Asensio: Another mystery … He was even referred to as a future Ballon d'Or. There is no trace of that Asensio. Against Eibar he didn't have time for much either.
