#4 Navas’ eventful return from injury
Trending
Keylor Navas, nursing a long-term hamstring injury, made his return to the first team after an extended layoff that saw him miss all of Madrid’s fixtures this season. While the Costa Rican was his typical self when it came to reacting to shots on target, he was clearly not at his best on the day.
It was his misdirected punch that led to Dortmund’s first equaliser – Navas had the opportunity to punch the ball to his side, but he chose instead to punch it back into the danger zone, where it hit Varane on the face and rebounded into the far post before being turned in by Aubameyang.
He was good at collecting crosses, though, and it was a decent performance apart from this howler. With more games under his belt, expect Navas to be the same rock-solid goalkeeper as he proved to be last season.
