Marcelo is known as one of the best in the world, if not the best, attacking lateral. However, Brazilian actions in defense are constantly criticized and really leave much to be desired..

Marca calculated the effectiveness of Marcelo in attack and defense, and it turned out that his attacking actions block the dips at his own goal..

The Spanish newspaper analyzed the 100 last Brazilian matches in Real Madrid in all the tournaments, and eventually determined that Marcelo took part in 49 goals of his team (this includes the goals scored by the player himself, the given assists, earned penalties and Brazilian actions that directly led to scoring).

At the same time, through the fault of Marcelo Real, he conceded 36 goals (trimmings, loss of position, “brought in” penalties and lost duels, which eventually led to a missed goal).

Note that Marcelo will not be able to take part in the Madrid derby due to injury.

The match Real - Atletico will take place on September 29 and will begin at 21:45, Kiev time.
