MC) Xabi Alonso
Alonso anchors the Madrid side, and will look to dictate tempo in central midfield. He’ll have a job on his hands though with the likes of Philipp Lahm and Bastian Schweinsteiger looking to do the same for the visitors.
MC) Luka Modric
Modric works as a deep-lying playmaker for Madrid now, and prides himself on his ability to play slick forward passes into the brilliant attackers.
MC) Angel Di Maria
Di Maria patrols the left side of the pitch defensively when Madrid are not in possession, and joins Alonso and Modric in more central areas when the team is attacking.
