The most striking feature of Real's revival was the lack of big stars in the starting lineup. In addition to Bale being sidelined due to injury, Zidane also left two other regular attackers, Ronaldo and Benzema, out. The trio of Luka Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro were also absent from the midfield, while James, Isco and Kovacic started.

In the 77th minute, Isco himself increased the score to 5-1 when he accurately connected from Vazquez's cross.

It was only towards the end of the match that coach Zidane brought Casemiro on to replace Isco. This was a correct decision because just a few minutes later, Casemiro himself sealed a 6-2 victory for Real with a long-range shot. The goal against Deportivo was also the second goal.in two consecutive matches of the Brazilian midfielder in Real shirt.

Isco (white shirt) played prominently in the role of leading the match.

While Real dominated, Deportivo only managed a few notable attacks. Thanks to poor marking by the visitors' defense, the 2000 La Liga champions got two consolation goals, both with crosses. Andone and Joselu finished with precise one-touch shots after the ball was crossed into the box.
