Martin Odegaard (CM) - 7/10 - Good performance from the skipper as he helped out his side in attack, creating a few chances. Put in some decent crosses from set pieces and linked up well with his teammates.

Jorginho (CM) - 8/10 - Really solid showing at the base of the midfield from the Italian. Played some nice passes and helped out in defence. Took his penalty well to level proceedings late in the first half.

Mikel Merino (CM) - 7/10 - Battled well in the midfield and won a number of duels. Posed some threat from set pieces and dropped back to help out defensively when required. A better overall showing from the Spaniard.
