Courtois: This time he did not have to save any sung goals. He could not do anything in both Ferreiro.
Lucas Vazquez: His performances as a right-back are being very remarkable. Very good in defense and incisive in attack. In the 14th he made a great play breaking lines. He was the one who gave Benzema the pass to make it 2-0.
Militao: A lost race with Rafa Mir at the start of the match resurrected his worst ghosts, but then everything returned to normal. I was with Ramos, and that makes your life easier.
Ramos: He completed 500 league games. Historical. Every time he has more of a forward soul, he goes up even if Madrid do not lose and the game is ending. In the 24th minute, Marcelo's cross shot a header.
Marcelo: More than once he put his hand to his leg as if muscularly hurt but the game ended. You need to play a lot to get into a proper competitive pace. It always ends up being important …
Casemiro: Inaccurate with the ball in the first half, he was seen more in defensive tasks than offensive ones. Logical.
Valverde: Anecdotal, because the goal was invented by Hazard, but the Uruguayan enabled the Belgian with his vertical pass. Then, he scored a great goal culminating in a great against the HBA. The last pass was from Benzema. For the rest, as always, great display of yours in the center of the field.
Modric: In the first part he gave a master class on touches with the outside of his right hand… short and long passes. It's nice to see the mobility and dynamism of the Croatian on the pitch. It is fireproof. They made him a very ugly tackle at the end of the game.
Asensio: His natural gesture is to turn inward, which raises the question of whether this is the right band for him. On the left we already know that he puts some prodigious centers, but there is Hazard. Of the three above, it was the one that went unnoticed the most.
Benzema: Two games in a row scoring. A relief for Zidane. He wasted a great pass from Vinicius in the second half. It would not have been amiss if he had raised his thumb thanking the Brazilian in full view of the whole world, since everyone could also see the crack on his partner. The fact is that, at least, both were sought. But it was Rodrygo who assisted him to do the second.
Hazard: He unblocked the game with a goal made out of nowhere. And he did everything calmly, as if it were not with him. First he controlled his back, won the position next to him and, from 27.2 meters, he connected an unstoppable left-foot. He didn't even celebrate, it was his second goal in 24 games with Real Madrid.
CHANGES
Mendy: He replaced Lucas Vázquez to play from side to changed leg. It performs anywhere.
Isco: New look, with a ponytail. He was playing again after his crack. Zidane doesn't hold a grudge against him … or he's smart and knows that he will end up needing him. He made some play of merit, but always looking towards himself.
Rodrygo: Some good play on the right and an assist to Benzema with a header.
Vinicius: What life is, as soon as he left he went alone in the race, winning the defense of Huesca and he scored a goal for Benzema … which he failed.
Kroos: He went out only to give breaks, already with the game more than resolved.
