It was only rightful of us to opt for a trio from the club, one comprising of Kieran Tripper, Mario Hermoso and Stefan Savic. Real Madrid on the other hand will as ever see the tenacious CB, Sergio Ramos make his way into our framework.
Midfielders
Marcos Llorente has now truly asserted his place in Atletico Madrid’s playing 11 with his four goals and two assists. Its been a pathbreaking season for Yannick Carasco as well with him taking to his wingback role like a fish takes to water to canter all around the park.
The midfield partnership of Toni Kroos and Luka Madrid is slowly starting to show signs reminiscent to their form a couple of seasons back. The third pack of the component, Casemiro completes the trio from Real Madrid, a player who is disrupting attacking plays with his challenges and aerial duels.
