Sevilla 2-3 Real Madrid: 5 Hits and Flops as Los Blancos come from behind to seal thrilling win | La Liga 2021-22

#3 Hit: Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid)

Dani Carvajal impressed yet again.

Dani Carvajal stood out for Real Madrid against Sevilla. After impressing against Chelsea, the Spaniard stepped up against Sevilla. Carvajal started as a left back in the absence of Ferland Mendy, Marcelo and Miguel Gutierrez.

Although he struggled initially adapting to his new role, he was immense in the second half. He was a menace on both the wings and grabbed a brace of assists for himself. Carvajal won four duels, made seven recoveries, won one tackle, made one clearance and created two chances throughout the game.

#2 Flop: Yassine Bounou (Sevilla)

Yassine Bounou had a night to forget.

Yassine Bounou looked lost throughout the game. He hardly looked convincing with any of his saves. Bounou looked shaky for the entirity of the game. He conceded three goals and it could have been a lot worse if not for Jules Kounde and Diego Carlos.

Bounou fell short whenever tested. The only time he looked convincing was when he denied Karim Benzema's effort, which was later called offside, and Eder Militao's long-ranger, which he managed to thwart past the goal.

#1 Hit: Rodrygo Goes (Real Madrid)

Rodrygo celebrates after scoring.

What a special performance by the youngster. He changed the entire scenario following his introduction. He scored a clinical goal minutes after coming on. The Brazilian struck one in the roof of the net after a brilliant passage of play which included Carvajal and Vinicius.

The Brazilian even set up Karim Benzema for the winning goal of the night as his cut-back was perfectly placed for the Frenchman. Rodrygo won three duels, created three chances, made one recovery and completed one dribble in the second half. Clutch performance by the 21-year-old yet again.
