Real Madrid faced Valencia today on matchday 27 of La Liga. Here are the scores given by our editorial team to the Madrilenians.
Moon: 7 – He can’t do much about the two goals conceded, to say the least. On the other hand, he made a big save on the hour mark to avoid the 3-1 and then relaxed well at the very end of the match with a strike from Peter.
Carvajal: 4 – Almost a decisive passer in reducing the score just before the break, the Spaniard also weighed down his team by offering the break goal to the beloved club.
Tchouaméni : 6 – The first period was tricky, he suffered, but he had a very good second period in a position which, let’s not forget, is not his.
Rüdiger: 6 – Security at all times, both in Valencia’s counterattacks and in the air. Good performance from the German.
Mendy : 5.5 – He did his usual job defensively and he was hit a lot offensively in the second half but the Frenchman was not the most inspired even if he made one or two good passes.
Camavinga: 6 – A Cama not very brilliant, but in the tone of the match unlike his teammates. He responded presently in the engagement but he often lacked solutions with the ball.
Kroos : 5 – He dictated the tempo as usual, until Valencia’s two goals. The machine then stalled and the German was even messy and missed even simple passes, something unusual for him.
Valverde : 5.5 – He lacked juice and technical accuracy. We saw him less participatory, less defensively present even if it was a little better in the second half.
Bellingham : 6 – He played a leading role in the minutes when the Madrilenians pushed the most. He scored the controversial goal with a masterful header. A goal which, for not having been validated, made him angry and led to his expulsion at the end of the match for protest…
Rodrigo: 5 – Only one goal in the last 10 matches for the Brazilian who is once again going through a delicate period. He’s been ghostly tonight.
⭐️ Vinicius: 7 – A double from the Brazilian this evening in a match which was difficult for him on paper given the previous ones. He played with personality and a lot of offensive ambition. MVP.
Ancelotti: 6 – He knew how to get his team to react. His changes made it possible to move up a gear in the search for a comeback. The feat didn’t go far.
