Lucas Vazquez started in 'El Clasico' as Ancelotti trusted him in the right-back position to stop Ansu Fati. All eyes were set on him as Fati's form suggested that Vazquez was going to have a rough night. Lucas successfully stopped Ansu Fati and even scored the winner for Real Madrid.

Lucas Vazquez landed on his feet once again. The Spaniard is used to turning what seems like a bad situation into something beneficial for the winger. He already changed his position last season following the injuries of many players and he was outstanding in 'El Clasico'.

Carlo Ancelotti trusted the Spaniard for the right-back position. His task was a difficult one: stopping Ansu Fati. This seemed like a difficult job as Fati's form was sublime and he seemed like one of the leaders on Koeman's side. 

The Spanish full-back had a great game and stopped Fati every time he had to. In addition to his great defensive performance, Lucas Vazquez scored the winner for 'Los Blancos' as he tapped in Asensio's cross. 

Lucas Vazquez's efforts made him an important member of the Real Madrid squad despite being criticized whenever his form is not as good.
