#2 Big game experience
Real Madrid won their tenth champions league title, thanks to a man of the match performance from Di Maria. On the biggest stage, involving the biggest names in the sport, it was ‘The Noodle’ Di Maria that shone the brightest. Undaunted by the pressure, he put in a sublime performance to kill of Atletico Madrid’s hopes of a first Champions League title.
If there were still any doubts about his ability to perform on the biggest stage, he assuaged them with his showing in the world cup. Di Maria doesn’t hide. He wants the ball, he wants to play and pressure doesn’t really get to him.
