Casillas: 7. Our captain showed a good overall performance, being able to avoid a second goal by Ludogorets with three good saves. However, his control of the box when defending set pieces seemed non-existent once again.
Arbeloa: 3. He miserably failed to control his post in the corner kick that yielded Ludogorets's goal, and he should have been able to block Marcelinho's header.
Varane: 6. A solid performance by Varane once again. Clean as usual, he showed a great display inside Real Madrid's box and continued to confirm the improvement in his aerial play.
Ramos: 5. A similar display to that of his partner Rafa, with the extra difficulty of having to cover a highway behind Marcelo's back. A couple of risky tackles after having been booked could have meant a red card for him.
Marcelo: 3. A great offensive contribution, as usual, but he was once again a defensive liability. Ramos had to cover his position way too many times during the game.
Illarramendi: 6. A solid performance, both in offensive and defensive tasks, although he lacked a bit of verticality with the ball.
Modric: 4. Although he got the ball as many times as he is used to, he was irrelevant to Real Madrid's offensive play today. He was never able to break lines with conductions and his passing was too horizontal.
Isco: 7. Until he left the field, he was the only Real Madrid player who was able to do anything out of the ordinary to break Ludogorets's defence. A fantastic 90% of accurate passes and six dribbles won made him the Man of the Match according to Whoscored.
Bale: 6. A discreet game by Bale today in the right wing, possibly because Real Madrid's offensive play was always built in the opposite wing. However, he made sense every time he got the ball, and had a couple of good goal chances that were cut because he was offside.
Chicharito: 4. He was very active upfront and provoked the penalty kick that Ronaldo missed, but he failed to score in front of an empty goal in the second half.
Ronaldo: 6. He scored a penalty kick but he missed another. Until Benzema's entrance, he was Real Madrid's most dangerous attacker on the field, although he was not nearly half as brilliant as he's been in the last few games.
Benzema: 9. Karim only needed twenty-five minutes to become Real Madrid's best player on the field tonight. He shook the game up, scored the winning goal and gave a couple of key passes that should have been converted into Real Madrid's third goal by his partners.
It would be unfair to give Kroos and James a mark since they didn't affect Real Madrid's performance significantly in the minutes they played. Their performance was average.
