#4 Luca Zidane's big night

Ent
Luca Zidane made his debut for Real Madrid

The 20-year-old started between the posts for Real Madrid in their final league game of the season. Being a debutant and the son of the club legend, it was obvious that all attention would be on how he fares in the game.

The young Zidane seemed confident from the word go. In the first half, he covered his angles well as few of Villarreal shots went just wide. His distribution was decent as he clocked up a 92% pass percentage. Luca also made a stunning save early in the second half, parrying away Nicola Sansone's dipping free kick.

The youngster had no chance to save the first Villarreal goal with Martinez hitting a sweet strike into the top corner. But he could have done better for the second goal, coming off his line quickly, to rush against Castillejo. All in all, it was a decent performance by the debutant, who will get more chances in the next season.
