    DIEGO ALVES (Valencia) – 8.2

    The Valencia goalkeeper broke the all-time record for the most penalty saves in La Liga after denying Atletico Madrid twice from the spot on Saturday.

    Despite thwarting the spot kicks from Antoine Griezmann and Gabi, Alves still wound up on the losing side as Valencia went down 2-0 at home.

    Alves has now come out on top 19 times from 12 yards in the Spanish division having faced 41 penalties.

    IAGO ASPAS (Celta de Vigo) 7.7

    Played as the lone striker, Aspas put in an exceptional performance. He held the ball up well and showed great energy. Brilliantly latched onto a ball forward and produced an emphatic finish for Celta Vigo’s second goal in their 4-3 win over Barcelona.

    PABLO HERNANDEZ (Celta de Vigo) 7.6

    Utilised behind Aspas on Sunday, he did well to close down the Barcelona midfielders and particularly stifled Sergio Busquets. Got on the scoresheet as well albeit with a lot of help from Ter Stegen.

    DANIEL WASS (Celta de Vigo) 7.9

    Wass put in a good shift in midfield against the Catalans. It was his dangerous cross that led to Mathieu’s own goal which gave Celta de Vigo a 3-0 lead.

    WISSAM BEN YEDDER (Sevilla) 7.4

    A quality brace from the attacking midfielder steered Sevilla to a 2-1 win over Deportivo Alves. He opened the scoring in the 74th minute and following Laguardia’s equaliser six minutes from time, grabbed the winner in the 90th minute to secure three vital points.
