Moroccan midfielder Ashraf Hakimi, who opened the match from the 18th to the Espanyol, was very close to the match, but Diego Lopez did not make it.

The two coaches began to make changes in search of goals, involving Zidane Karim Benzema instead of Isco, Flores Victor Sanchez and Gerranero in midfield.
