Started at left-back with Mendy not being fit enough to feature. The Frenchman struggled to contain Yamal down the left flank.

Player ratings:
Starting XI:
Andriy Lunin: 4/10
After a heroic performance against Manchester City, Lunin was the absolute opposite of that against Barcelona. The Ukrainian was at fault for both of Barca’s goals in what was a forgettable display.
Lucas Vazquez: 9/10
An incredible performance from the Galician who was involved in all three of Real Madrid’s goals. Vazquez won the penalty for the opener, scored Real Madrid’s second and assisted Bellingham’s winner. Brilliant.
Antonio Rüdiger: 7/10
Another solid performance from the German. Can’t really be faulted for either of Barca’s goals.
Aurélien Tchouaméni: 7/10
Won his tackles and handled Lewandowski decently well. Another solid display from the Frenchman.
Eduardo Camavinga: 6/10
Substitutions:
Fran Garcia: 6/10 – Came on to replace Camavinga. The Spaniard put in a decent shift off the bench.
Brahim Diaz: 7/10 – Came on to replace Toni Kroos. Brahim made a difference off the bench and played his part in the winner.
Eder Militão: 6/10 – Came on to replace Rodrygo with 15 minutes to go.
Joselu: N/A – Came on to replace Vinicius late on. The Spaniard played a nice dummy in the build-up to Bellingham’s late winner
