solid performance although he struggled a bit with Kondogbia. had some nice tackles as well which is a rare sight, should do it more often since it's a good compensation for his lack of speed. was expecting him to be caught off guard a bit but he did well overall. anyway, this is the way he's always played, don't know why people are expecting him to become Mascherano overnight. it's how he won 2 CLs and a World Cup.
free-kick aside, he's had some great passes too. one to Morata on that counter and a couple to Lichtsteiner but he couldn't reach them.
