With an outstanding presence on the right side, Dani Carvajal assisted Ferland Mendy in Real Madrid’s second goal, before tying the match with a strong shot with only five minutes remaining.
Already in extra time and after performing effectively in defense and attαck, the chosen best footballer in the semifinal decided Real Madrid’s classification with a lateral cross towards Joselu that became the goal of the Merengue comeback after rebounding off the central defender Stefan Savic.
A demonstration of pride and talent in equal parts awarded at the Al-Awwal stadium in Riyadh, where the merengue team will play next Sunday in the grand final of the Super Cup.
“In the end, my calves came up”
In a press conference, Dani Carvajal acknowledged that at the end of the match he was suffering physical problems. “My calves were coming up, but I said I had to continue and, in the end, with the pass to Joselu, we were able to win the game.”
“There is no better way to celebrate my birthday than with this game,” the defender joked about a match in which he felt “right” in front of goal. A meeting that he claimed to have “enjoyed”, just as he tries to enjoy each one he disputes. He does it, he has said, accompanied by a group that he sees “in good dynamics.”
