The journalists gave an assessment to each player of the first team of Madrid. Vinicius Junior, Fede Valverde and Toni Kroos received the most (9). Mariano Diaz and Eden Hazard were recognized as the worst - 1 point each. Thibaut Courtois was given 5, and Andrey Lunin - 7.

“Lunin fulfilled the role of replacing Courtois. The Belgian's injury forced him into the spotlight. He performed well in important matches, for example, in El Clasico (Blancos victory 3: 1 - approx.), And showed that he can be a guaranteed substitute goalkeeper, ”the MD article says.

This season, Andriy played 6 games in a row for Real Madrid, in which he conceded 4 goals and made 13 saves.
