EDERSON Insurance
The Brazilian goalkeeper interfered throughout the game but, apart from a whiplash from Kroos which the crossbar saved him, he successfully blocked several shots.
WALKER Blotting
The English winger combined his position as right center back perfectly with the difficult mission of stopping Vinicius, who was never far from him.
RUBEN DIAS Solid
The Portuguese center back is an impregnable bulwark in City’s defence. Always well positioned, he drained Benzema and didn’t give any space.
AKANJI Firm
The Swiss centre-back put in an impeccable performance at left centre-back, a position in which Guardiola managed to get the best of himself. Perfect on the cut, he didn’t give Rodrygo an option.
Complementary STONE
Adapted to the double pivot position in which Guardiola placed him this season, he assisted Rodri both in defensive tasks and in the distribution of play.
RODRI Spectacular
The display of the city cannot be understood without a recital of the Madrid midfielder, who moved his teammates with his usual quality and set the pace of his game at all times.
BERNARDO SILVA Decisive
Sometimes criticized for his too much poise, the Portuguese played very focused and even overexcited at the start with three consecutive fouls, but the competitive tension was key for him to be the hero of the match with his two goals .
DE BRUYNE Very tired
The Belgian star showed his exceptional class in playing the first goal with an excellent pass between the lines that left Bernardo Silva alone. He was off balance as usual, although in the second half he made a strong physical effort which affected the accuracy of his passes.
GÜNDOGAN Multipresent
The German backed up his brilliant form with a technical and physical display on the pitch. Not only did he destroy attacking lines with his quality, but he always played intelligently and cut out compromised balls in defense.
GREALISH Nightmare
The English winger has been key in his contribution to City’s game on the left wing. He was involved in the second goal and tackled Carvajal repeatedly, leaving him desperate to force a yellow card after going overboard.
HAALAND fell
City went down but their gunner was unable to score. The Norwegian appeared more than at the Bernabéu, had a fierce duel with Militao and had three good chances, but Courtois miraculously prevented him from scoring on a historic night.
MAHREZ Tactical
Unlike the Bernabéu, Guardiola made changes. He brought the Algerian to the right flank in place of Gündogan in the 79′ so that Bernardo Silva could focus on his position.
FODEN Assistant
The English winger came on for De Bruyne in the 84′ and had time to slot in a perfect through ball for Julián Álvarez to close the scoring.
JULIÁN ALVAREZ Infallible
The young Argentine forward replaced Haaland in the 89′ and almost needed a few seconds to get the goal that eluded the Norwegian and closed the City festival.
