Mariano levelled the proceedings with a goal in the 84th minute while Ramos scored headed a corner to win the game for Real Madrid. Below are Real Madrid’s individual player ratings.
Keylor Navas: 7/10
Although Navas could have done little about the first goal, he could have done better in Deportivo’s second goal which went through his legs.
Danilo: 7.5/10
Danilo often ran the whole length of the pitch to get into the box and provide support although he was often caught upfield.
Pepe: 7.5/10
Pepe too was caught out of position a couple of times in the box but his overall performance was fairly average.
Sergio Ramos: 8/10
Sergio Ramos did well defensively and his stoppage time winner gave Real Madrid all three points.
His offensive involvement especially during set-pieces in the last minutes of the game gave Real Madrid a big boost.
Nacho: 7.5/10
Nacho didn’t cut back in with his runs and stayed wide to stretch the opposition’s fullbacks wide but lost a few duels with the opposite number.
