Eh suffering
A bad evening. This is how Karl Jakob Hein will remember this match against Real Madrid. Loaned by Arsenal since 2022, the goalkeeper suffered the assaults of the Madrid throughout the match. After conceding a goal in the first period, the Estonian conceded a second in the second period but was able to be more reliable on his outings.

Fran Garcia Trop Discret
Placed in his usual left corridor of the Madrid defense, Fran Garcia was very discreet on Saturday evening. Back as a holder after the tenure of Ferland Mendy in the Champions League on Wednesday, the 25 -year -old did a good job in defense. Nevertheless, the Spanish side has not delivered many good offensive balls to his teammates in attack, even if these managed to get them themselves. The left side will have the opportunity to catch up against Brest Wednesday in the Champions League or against Espanyol Barcelona next Saturday in the league.
