Courtois: Assured in claiming any loose balls; a very quiet half.

Miranda: Made a few strong headed clearances.

Juanfran: Started attacks from the back well, locked down Piatti when he was in a wide position.

Luis: Struggled with Valencia's Barragan on the flank.

Godin: Made several errors in the passing game, but solid overall.

Tiago: Active in the defensive side of the game, making three tackles and halting Valencia's progress.

Gabi: Solid defensively and untroubled by runners, but a non-factor going forward.

R Garcia: Got himself into some strong positions and finally cashed in with a goal. Subbed for a rest.

Koke: Fluffed an excellent chance to volley home from a Costa cross. Solid overall.

Villa: Hasn't scored for months, but came closest with a fizzing effort just past the post.

Costa: A so-so game for the naturalised Spaniard. One cross from the right was very good, but fluffed a one vs. one to make it comfortable.
