Picking a MotM was tough for me this time - In the first half I would have said Xavi, but then Leo got on a roll, and then David was being so great too, with pace and good judgment and generosity... those three were all awesome.
I think the difference is that Pedro is a striker, even though (like Torres) he has gone through periods of bad form, but Alexis is not - they have been trying to make him one, but he just doesn't have that killer instinct or whatever it is.
I was also happy to hear the fans support Victor, and I *loved* that bit where Puyi fell and then bounced up looking fierce and tore across the pitch... what a warrior!
The Real Madrid-Getafe match was too early for me, although I caught a bit at the end. I wish I had seen the Miniclasico or the Athletic-Atletico match, but I'd been traveling and had a lot to catch up on at home before the week started, so... ah well.
