Defenders

RB Lucas Vazquez

An okay-ish performance from Vazquez. Did not have much to do defensively but struggled to make good decisions in the attack. He did have a good first-half, though. Not much to write home about. Rating: 6

CB Raul Asencio

Another good performance from Asencio. It seems like every day he just improves on what he did in the previous match. He was great once again, and already seems like a seasoned veteran even though he has only been around for half a year. Some crucial blocks, good ball progression and a calm, focused head. Rating: 7.5

CB David Alaba

A first good performance for Alaba in over a year. He had been injured for a while, and has looked shaky in his few appearances since his return. However, this was good. He passed the ball well, and looked very comfortable in defense alongside Asencio. Made a few good challenges too. Rating: 7

LB Fran Garcia

Made darting runs into his former team's half on multiple occasions and provided Vinicius Jr some support. Had a couple of chances where he could have done better, but generally good from the Spanish fullback. Rating 6.5
