Chaque semaine, nous revenons sur les performances des joueurs passés par le Festival International Espoirs. Plusieurs d’entre eux ont brillé ce week-end.
En Espagne, le Real Madrid a balayé Granada (4-0). Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal – 2003) et James Rodriguez (Colombie – 2011) ont joué un rôle majeur dans ce succès. Le premier a inscrit son 17e but de la saison en championnat et délivré une passe décisive. Le second a marqué un doublé dont une volée absolument magnifique. Les deux anciens du Festival brillent semaine après semaine !
Enfin, un mot sur les anciens du Festival évoluant au Portugal. Yacine Brahimi (France – 2010) a contribué au succès de Porto face au Nacional (2-0) en inscrivant un but sublime. Plus tôt, Anderson Talisca (Brésil – 2013) a donné la victoire au Benfica face à Rio Ave (1-0) grâce à un joli tir lointain.
