Diego (Atletico Madrid)
Brazilian midfielder Diego came on as a substitute for the injured Diego Costa after half an hour of play against FC Barcelona, and promptly scored one of the most incredible goals seen in the competition this season, an angled drive from wide on the right that flew into the near post top corner beyond Pinto.
Though not exactly renowned for his defensive contribution, Diego formed a key part of Atleti’s brilliant pressing unit, making three tackles and being fouled on four occasions himself.
