Real Madrid snatched a 1-0 win at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán Stadium on Sunday in the penultimate fixture of the LaLiga season. A first-half goal from Vinicius Jr. was the difference between the two sides. Alvaro Arbeloa oversaw his last away game as Real Madrid manager.
Dean Huijsen impressed from the back. He had 107 touches, 91.8% pass completion, and 14 progressive passes (the highest figure on the pitch). With Trent Alexander-Arnold dropped and Dani Carvajal back at right-back, the Spaniard became
Real Madrid’s deepest playmaker, stepping into midfield lines and clipping vertical passes through Sevilla’s first press.
Thiago Pitarch had 92.6% pass completion – the highest of any player on the field. His eight ball recoveries were joint-most in the match, alongside Sevilla’s Andrés Castrín. Pitarch operated in a territory that demanded more than just ball-circulation. He also provided two key passes, two progressive passes, and a successful take-on.
Jude Bellingham put in a great shift defensively. He had 100% longball completion, six progressive passes in addition to seven ball recoveries in this game.
Here is the full list of the top 10 players in the game across various metrics:
