Joan Garcia: 7.0/10

Kept yet another clean sheet in his La Liga campaign and the Spaniard looks set to win the Zamora trophy by the end of the campaign. A brilliant performance from the goalkeeper.

Eric Garcia: 8.0/10

Completely managed to lock down Vinicius Jr and hardly let him get any space to do some real damage. Beyond that, his runs were well-timed and he did whatever was necessary to stop Real Madrid’s positive moves.

Pau Cubarsi: 8.0/10

Great composure from the youngster to lock down the side through which Real Madrid looked to threaten Barça whenever possible. His leadership and ability on the ball both came in handy.

Gerard Martin: 7.5/10

Did well to accompany Pau Cubarsi in defense and followed his lead well. Moreover, some of his passes were key to opening up the Madrid structure whenever they looked to be even slightly out of position.

Joao Cancelo: 7.0/10

Despite being unable to provide the attacking creativity he normally does on a consistent basis in this game, Joao Cancelo still had some great moments. Solid display from the Portuguese player.

Gavi: 7.5/10

Never let the Madrid players get comfortable on the ball and always thwarted any positive chances that they got. Played his role perfectly and disrupted their plans on several occasions.

Pedri: 8.5/10

The opposition simply could not touch him, and Pedri delivered a sensational display that kept the opposition frustrated throughout the game. From his passing to his technical mastery over the ball, the Barcelona captain ran circles around Real Madrid and ended the match as the official MVP.

Dani Olmo: 8.0/10

A masterful display in midfield tonight, Dani Olmo played exactly like Hansi Flick would have wanted him to play. Beyond just the chances he created and the tempo he helped maintain, his assist for Barça’s second goal was a work of art.

Fermin Lopez: 7.5/10

Despite not being on the score sheet, Fermin Lopez added a lot of energy throughout the match. Constantly ensured that Real Madrid never got time on the ball and forced them to play quicker than they would have liked to.

Marcus Rashford: 8.0/10

The English winger did not care for the occasion or the pressure, and he ended up delivering in the best way he knows how. Scoring a sensational freekick goal right after having won it himself, and his intensity apart from that was amazing to watch as well.

Ferran Torres: 8.5/10

From the first minute up until he was substituted, Ferran Torres provided intensity and eagerness to win the ball back for Barcelona. He was a constant thorn for Real Madrid to deal with, and he made sure to score a splendid goal as well following Dani Olmo’s great assist.

Substitutes:

Frenkie de Jong: 6.5/10

Did well to recover the ball and dictate the tempo of the game alongside Pedri after he came on.

Raphinha: 7.0/10

Came on with a lot of energy and directness which ended up causing Real Madrid a lot of problems whenever he came at them.

Robert Lewandowski: 5.0/10

A bit selfish to get a goal himself, considering that he could have set up Fermin Lopez in a better position.

Marc Bernal: N/A 

Not enough time or influence on the game to warrant a rating.

Alejandro Balde: N/A

Not enough time or influence on the game to warrant a rating.
