🟢 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐬 – 𝟐

𝑻𝒐𝒑 𝑷𝒆𝒓𝒇𝒐𝒓𝒎𝒆𝒓𝒔:

🥇 Isco 🇪🇸
🟢 9.59

🥈 Johnny Cardoso 🇺🇸
🟢 8.06

🥉 Ferland Mendy 🇫🇷
⚪️ 7.96

Following a dominant start by Real Madrid, Brahim Diaz managed to open the score at the 10 minute mark. However, in the last 15 minutes of the first half, Real Betis were the better team: this performance earned them a goal by Johnny Cardoso to go along with 60% possession and 4 corners. In the second half, Real Madrid had more ball (around 60.5%) but the poor performances of Vinicius Jr. and Mbappe (combined with Isco’s talent) allowed Betis to win the game with a goal from the penalty spot.

Particularly with a goal, an assist and several brilliant moments, it’s hard not to award Isco the MOTM award. In addition, we can see from the report card that Isco had 3 Goal-Creating Actions – an incredible amount of actions against one of the best teams in the world. Furthermore, Isco had great progressive actions (mainly by passes) along with great pass completion % and great defensive pressence.

🥉 Josep Martínez 🇪🇸
⚫️ 6.82 🧤

In a first half dominated by Napoli, it was Inter who scored first with a great goal from a Federico Dimarco free kick. In spite of that, the second half was more of the same thing: with 12 shots to Inter’s 0, Napoli managed to score in the 87th minute through Philip Billing’s right foot.

Specifically with a solid defensive presence combined with a successful dribble and great pass completion %, Buongiorno was our MOTM.

🥉 Lamine Yamal 🇪🇸
🔵🔴 9.01

In an even game until Elustondo was sent off, FC Barcelona dominated the rest of the game. Coupled with 80% possession and 33 shots, the 4-0 result seems a little short for FC Barcelona.

All things considered, with a goal and an assist as a Centre-Back, it’s hard not to award Ronald Araújo the MOTM award. In addition, we can see from the report card that Araújo had 1 Goal-Creating Actions wuth great progressive passes % along with great pass completion %.
