Courtois: A party disparate yours. He alternated failures such as a bad delivery with his feet to merit stops, especially the one he did to Expósito. Bigas' goal went between his legs, but it came from a rebound.
Carvajal: He received a blow at the beginning of the encounter with Kike and it seems that, affected by him, he was barely seen in the attack. Zidane reserved for him exchanging him for Mendy at the break.
Ramos: Imperial on his goal, Beckenbauer stole in his area, started with momentum, and ended the play that Benzema and Hazard had braided to take advantage of their effort. Madrid is safer with him on the field. When he left, he accused him.
Varane: Conserve his speed, he reduced some head ball, the perfect companion for Ramos.
Marcelo: He had us used to coming back somewhat lacking in form after the break, but against Eibar he showed that he has taken the job very seriously during confinement. Golazo yours. Afterward, he even got dizzy in the second half due to the effort.
Casemiro: There is a play that defines this player. It was in the 14th. Tucked between the centrals, he took out a very dangerous center from Orellana. He is always where he is needed. He was even seen to be very late to put the game together.
Modric: It has become fine. He gave a lesson in the middle of the field. The quality of the Ballon d'Or is undeniable. It went down with the passing of the minutes of the second part.
Kroos: He was the one who made Madrid have a comfortable game with his goal at the start of the game. With Casemiro and Modric he reminded midfield of the best times in the near past.
Rodrygo: Zidane surprised him by aligning him in the first match after the break. Neat, he had a chance to score with a shot from medium distance. But overall, Hazard's band always weighed more.
Benzema: The glue that unites everything in the attack zone, especially important was his connection with Hazard in Ramos' and Marcelo's goal. No one sees football like him in the area where most of the players turn off the light.
Hazard: Great news his return, but even better his performance. And that a blow to the foot at the start of the game made us fear the worst. But she got over it after a moment of doubt. He had an overflow on the left and even changed his band with Rodrygo to shine also on the right. It's back.
Changes
Mendy: Urgent solution for Zidane, preferred that he play on the right to give Carvajal rest. There its deficiencies are noticed a little.
Militao: It seems that he lacks confidence and that is the worst thing that can happen to a central defender. He failed in a ball out but had no major problems otherwise despite the collapse of the team in the second half.
Vinicius: He entered with the game broken, it was perfect for him, but he could not find the pulse of the game. It also did not help that Madrid was already down and without the ball.
Bale: Alarming that he did nothing the time he was in the field, about half an hour. He was able to touch a couple of balls and lost them both. It was his 250th match in Madrid.
Valverde: Zidane put him through Modric at the very end to safeguard the result.
