The task was made easier by winning the first leg, but Al-Nisr was not satisfied; On the contrary, he put in one of the best performances this season, seeing the front carousel work perfectly and imposing himself in the Champions League.
Figure: Goncalo Ramos (5) – 12 appearances, 7 goals
Of the five goals, there was only a tackle on the fourth… because it was a penalty. A resounding display, moving up front (in the lane, he spotted Rafa 1-0) and deadly in his hometown: the penalty area. Working at 2-0, getting three opponents out of the way and shooting hard into the back of the net, is the moment of the match – the no-take from the first end on the third and the back-heel to Rafa on the fifth.
Flashodemus (3) – 12 joules 10g
He finished the night with just one defense, which says a lot about the unique meaning of the game. Nothing could be done about Meagher’s goal.
Bah (3) – 10J 0g
He had complete freedom to attack and headbutted Maijer, who was booked in the 48th minute.
Antonio Silva (4) – 8J 1G
He cleaned what he had to clean behind him, and although the opponent didn’t bother pressing, he ended up with 100% passing efficiency: he hit the 79 he made.
Otamendi (3) – 12J 1G
Despite the inattention that allowed Vanaken to head (23 minutes) and a yellow card, he was safe. Orientation allows it to be managed.
Grimaldo (3) – 12J 2G
As usual, a lot of presence in the attack. He linked directly to 3-0, assisted by Gonzalo Ramos, and saw his volley, from a free kick, go into Mignolet’s figure.
Florentine (3) – 12J 0G
He ran like hell (12.67 km) and never let Bruges play out front. If he was perfect on the pass, on the shot he just didn’t have the goal, as evidenced by the failure at the goal mouth in the 16th minute.
Chiquinho (4) – 10J 0G
A positive return to the eleventh, as if it never left. Always with a sense of purpose and the right to serve between the lines – see step 0-3. I deserve an ovation.
Joao Mario (4) – 12J 6G
The celebration began, in a wonderful retreating heel goal, and Meijer took another goal down the line. He did not calm down, and in the first half he scored 2-0 in favor of J. Ramos. He finally got the right penalty – and there are 6 goals in the Champions League.
Raphael (4) – 12J 6G
Even he got tired of seeing it at 1-0: he started the counterattack in defensive midfield, sprinted, got someone out of his way and shot for the count. He had a direct involvement in the 5th edition of the Eagle and was always a mystery.
Ursnes (4) – 8J 0G
Whether in the middle or in attack, always open spaces. In the 3-0, he dismantled Bruges by opening Grimaldo.
Neris (3) – 10J 4G
One shot, one target. Contribute to the party by the left hand.
Gilberto (3) – 7J 1G
The birthday boy came and took a “gift” – that is, a penalty – for Clumsy Silla.
Murat (3) – 5J 0G
I picked up the “quarters” pace.
Joao Neves (3) – 2J 0G
Finally, he had more minutes and matched the bet with an assist for Neres’ goal.
Lucas Verissimo (1) – 2J 0G
Brisk again.
