Real Madrid stepped up after the break to achieve a 3-0 LA Liga victory at Real Oviedo to make it back-to-back victories this season.
Didn't have much to do in the first half, but made two crucial saves late, both sides of the second goals of Kylian Mbappe, and remains the best in La Liga.
A surprise meeting from Alonso to start his captain about Trent Alexander-Arnold as the first time he did. I looked defensively and adds to the theory that is rotated on the right this season.
. Another somewhat unexpected call from Alonso, after Eer Militao had started against Osasuna, but his experience remains important.
Unmoved as the first choice under Alonso and to make it easy for the physical threat of the Oviedo attack while his Liga adjustment continues in pace.
Alvaro Carreras – 7
Showed more attacking intention than against Osasuna and well connected to Rodrygo for him to the left of Real Madrid.
A briscon start of the season at the basis of the midfield of Real Madrid and Sharp Challenge was the trigger for the first half of Mbappe.
The general in the midfield of Alonso, was out of luck not to step into the break of the break and showed the real willingness to break through in the Oviedo penalty area.
Showed some nice details to link midfield to attack, his starting place continues to justify in the early days under Alonso.
Throwed through Alonso from the start, and with power to the outside and centrally run, offers something different in profile than Guler and Brahim Diaz.
Alonso has consistently answered questions about the future of Rodrygo and his decision to begin him underlines the manager's determination to keep him. Two early chances could have ended up in the back of Oviedo's net and he seems to stay.
Real Madrid's Star Mane with two brilliant goals in both halves and Mbappe is on fire at the start of the season.
