One reviewIn Real Madrid’s 3-0 victory over Cádiz, the defense around returning Rafael Varane radiates safety, while Antonio Blanco and Casemiro shine in the midfield. The best player on the field was Karim Benzema, who contributed with two goals and one decisive industry. REAL TOTAL individual assessment for the 31st day.

Starting at the eleventh
Thibaut Courtois
With few exceptions, the Belgian has been in very good (or even great) shape for nearly two years: only 24 goals conceded in 32 matches is an impressive number, also statistically speaking, given playing time, which in many ways is complicated. In the coastal city of Andalusia, the 1.99-meter tall man was a relatively small challenge, but when the 28-year-old was examined, he was there. The fact that he apparently defended without effort what might have been the most promising result for the owners of the land, presented by Soprino in stoppage time, confirms the self-image of the Belgian goalkeeper. Real Total – Note: 2.
Edir Militau
Another blatant clean performance from the Brazilian. Unlike the hot duels with Liverpool or Barcelona, the 23-year-old was less involved in the hot duels in Cádiz, but the bottom line is that the central defender has continued his promising performance in past weeks with ease. With slightly more fortune at the end, he could even make the scorer list after Marcelo’s powerful cross from the free kick (14). Real Total – Note: 2.
Raphael Varane (until the 61st minute of the match)
Successful return of the world champion! In the face of the recognized Andalusians, the French have expressed their calm and regained sovereignty over the past few months. Plus four demos – including twice in important positions (18, 60) – the 27-year-old is also convinced of a clean passing game (95 percent success rate) and some good balls in the transition game. Real Total – Note: 2.
Nacho Fernandez
Are we currently seeing what could be the “best nacho ever”? Just like his fellow men in the past often played three or five series, the veteran also emphasized the cool look of previous matches. In addition to several successful defensive actions (three dispersals and four ball wins), the 31-year-old contributed to Odriozola’s 2-0 first pass. In terms of constitution, Zizou will not be able to avoid betting on Nacho at the crucial stage of the season. Real Total – Note: 2.
Alvaro Odriozola (until the 61st minute of the match)
After many unfortunate appearances recently, the 25-year-old spent a happy evening in the coastal city of Andalusia. Although the right-back was unable to bring the player’s first promising wings, with the increase in playing time, the Spaniard seemed to be more integrated into the Merengues compound game. The fact that the full-back, who has been repeatedly criticized for his mixed appearances, took advantage of Benzema’s cross in the 34th minute of the match with a header through the bras of Cadiz goalkeeper Ledesma, should soothe the wounds of the past weeks. Other than that, Odriozola also had an impressive mileage – including some deeper target routes. Well done, Alvaro! Real Total – Note: 2.
Casemiro
In the absence of Luka Modric and Toni Kroos, the Brazilian, who had to pass Getafe due to suspension, assumed responsibility in midfield. While the 29-year-old managed to make two strange bad passes in the first quarter of the hour, he improved significantly over the course of the season, and after a great combination over Rodrigo and Benzema, he was 3-0 ahead (38th). While the most conspicuous was unable to get the flogging in Cadiz goalkeeper Ledesma himself, he contributed a superb pass two minutes later with a chip ball. Statistically, 90 touchers, five headers, ball grabs and a main pass won the extent of the influence of the defensive specialist, who was noticeably more attacking by Blanco, on the Real Madrid match that evening. Real Total – Note: 2.
Antonio Blanco
Three days after a promising league debut from the bank, the 20-year-old was allowed to run from the start due to a shortage of staff in midfield – and he was able to convince. The youngster performed with extremely positive body language, winning many balls before the defensive series (two defeats, three straight wins) and making almost no mistakes (68 touches, 93 percent passing). If the Merengues team carefully builds the young talent, it appears there is a lot less need to work in the transfer market with regard to the central midfield position than has been assumed recently. Real Total – Note: 2.
Marcelo (until the 74th minute of the match)
How far Marcelo is still able to deliver Mering, he pointed at Cadiz, especially with his impressive crosses and some gritty running down the slopes. In addition, the Brazilian appears to be doing much better in 3-5-2 and 3-4-3, as he has to lead less decisive defensive duels here. In Andalusia, the 32-year-old was an asset until his substitution – the success rate could be expanded by 67 percent from the outside position despite some dangerous balls. Real Total – Note: 2,5.
Rodrigo goes
After the 20-year-old wasn’t too happy lately and completely logged out of Getafe, he introduced himself to be a little more flexible and playful on Wednesday evening. So he dared to do some great dribbles (25) and he was also almost always involved when things were tough in the host’s penalty area: whether in front of Casemiro’s first chance with a superb shot to Benzema (38), with a deep pass to Mariano (76). , Offside position) or as the leader in the penalty kick (28, passed to Benzema) – Rodrigo participated in many good offensive actions. Shame from the winger’s point of view: in the 86th minute of the match, he narrowly missed his goal from a good position. Real Total – Note: 2.
Karim Benzema (until the 74th minute of the match)
The midfield striker’s next world performance: With his two goals against FC Cádiz, the Frenchman has now also scored against all 35 LaLiga teams he has played against in his career so far. After the 33-year-old scored the goal 1-0 with a sharp penalty himself (30th place), Odriozola’s header returned to make it 2-0 with a cross kick with his left foot just four minutes later. Six more pointer revolutions later, Blancos headed a cross from Casemiro from the half of the field to make the score 3-0. He also fell after the break with a good free kick (53) and two powerful passes for Odriozola (57) and Marcelo (65) before leaving the stadium for Mariano in the final stages. Well done, Karim! Real Total – Note: 1.
Vinicius Jr. (until the 61st minute of the match)
An asset in Los Blancos was in a somewhat dormant preliminary stage and caused four faults with dribbling or skilled ramps – including a foul penalty that brought the royal team to their winning ways in the 30th minute of the match. Even if the 20-year-old did not take a dangerous shot at goal himself, he integrated well into the Madrid’s offensive game and also decisively changed the stability of the game by provoking the penalty kick. Real Total – Note: 2,5.
Substitute players
Daniel Carvajal (from the 61st minute of the match)
Certainly not a festive performance by the attacking full-back, but without a doubt a solid comeback. After all, he played a key pass in about 30 minutes, made 37 hard touches of the ball and the best passing rate was 97 percent. It looks like the 29-year-old is back on the field just in time. Real Total – Note: 2,5.
Isco (from the 61st minute of the match)
The Magic Foot certainly had a different idea for his birthday: instead of being in the starting line-up, the 29-year-old had to line up behind Blanco and only entered the match half an hour before the end of the match. . With the exception of a great cross from a free kick to Nacho (90 + 2), Isco unfortunately was unable to contribute any dangerous action despite 40 strong tackles. Real total – note: 3,5.
Marco Asensio (from the 61st minute of the match)
Although Marco Asensio had already put on more visible displays in royal outfit, his actions were all hand and foot: whether with a superb pass to Marcelo (65th) or some clever pass under the pressure of an opponent – the 25-year-old was not outstanding. , Is introduced but correctly in Merengues. Real total note: 3.
Mariano Diaz (from the 74th minute of the match)
It came late and could barely convince in more than 15 minutes with just a little bit of use. Deformation from an offside position immediately after being substituted at (76), before being noticed in the final stage with an uncontrolled long-range shot. Without rating.
Miguel Gutierrez (from the 74th minute of the match)
The 19-year-old made his professional debut in Cadiz and presented himself with courage. 23 friction balls, some good defensive action (win a ball, articulation) and a reasonable passing rate (81 percent) indicate that the youngster will definitely not be in the royal squad for the last time. Additionally, the name Gutierrez is likely to bring back many great memories for many Real Madrid players. Without rating.
Coach
Zinedine Zidane
If the head coach offers his detractors points to attack again and again in the first half of the season due to later and fewer changes, a relatively rigid-looking game idea, and sometimes tired appearances of his companions, Zidane presents himself fresh and resilient because he’s rarely before. At FC Cádiz, the Frenchman managed, despite a number of failures, to confidently collect the three points, which are so important to the title fight. Both the decision in favor of the three-way streak and the appointment of Blanco initially turned out to be lucrative. The fictional Zidane must have more than just a plan A in his pocket against Thomas Tuchel and Chelsea FC. Real Total – Note: 1,5.
