The England duo shone against Athletic

Real Madrid got it with a win at San Mames over Athletic Club, one of their best performances of the season in Bilbao.
Thibaut Courteois – 8
He came up with a stunning save in the first half from Alex Berenguer that he had little right to make. The Belgian goalkeeper will be sorely missed the day he is no longer there for Real Madrid.
Trent Alexander-Arnold – 8.5
The best performance of Alexander-Arnold Brilliant-Field Pass Pass found an open Kylia Mbappe, and his cross was half of the help in their second second. He looked back a lot on the ball, providing the quality he brought.
Eder Militao – 8
It’s as strong as ever with Militao, who remains Real Madrid’s keeper this season. Come the last 15 minutes, he is the glue of the backline right now.
Antonio Rudiger – 7.5
A little more than his defensive partner, but a solid performance in general. An encouraging return to action from the German defender, well played by Girona.
Alvaro Carreras – 7
A lackluster but strong performance from Carreras. He went forward enough, he was faithful behind.
Fede Valverde – 6.5
Challenges are well received at times. He still looks a bit like a square peg in a round hole in Xabi Alonso’s Midfield, but little to cure it – in true comic fashion, he looks even better at the back.
Eduardo Camavinga – 7.5
It was a constant thing on the side of the athlete in the first half, making loose balls and helping to launch the attack with his winning ball. The function of reminding in a very useful way, and it appeared with the intention of starting.
Aurelien Tchouameni – 7.5
TChouameni lives in Midrid’s Midrid’s Middid Mostfield, and does his job without fuss. There were times when athletic had offers to be found in the real madrid section, it was TChouameni’s credit that they didn’t do much about it.
Jude Bellingham – 8.5
Getting the gist? Bellingham’s best performance of the season. Added to some loose balls in the Final Ofter Third, and his pressure helped set the tone for the first half. Sharp and purposeful with the ball, his role in the second goal showed real class.
Kylia Mbappe – 9
What do you have to say about MBAPPE? Their most consistent player, their best player, and the best player in Spain right now. The start of the electric had a sports trip after the real madrid from Off, and his two goals were bright – the first of the bona fide superstar. The site was unselfish and showed the presence of mind to find camavinga where he could make a goal.
25 goals for Kylie Mbappé.
4 help.

Instead
Raul Asencio – 6.5
He replaced Alexander-Arnold for the remainder of the second half, and was active in his duties. He moved to Centre-Back in the last quarter of an hour.
Arda Guler – 6
With Madrid’s real content to defend the deep attack and present the opposition, the guler found himself passing the game a little, with little chance to enter the ball.
Rodrygo goes – 5.5
Now officially the longest performance of any real Madrid without scoring goals, RodryGo showed good movement, but most of his bodies were deflected from the visible efforts. Similarly, this lovely thing that passes behind, Rodrygo was not on the same wavelength as brahim diaz.

Brahim Diaz – 6
What you don’t pay attention to is Brahm, who is always present in the game that was Carlo Ancolotti who was walking on the bench.
Gonzelo Garcia – 6
Given all the real Madrid stuff, these were tough situations to show much of the inside. And Garcia was unable to do so.
