Defender Joan Capdevila was imperial yesterday as he helped Villarreal come from behind to claim a 3:2 victory against Getafe in La Liga by scoring twice. He picked up 20.13 rating points in the FTBL system to move back into the elite group of the world’s top defenders.
With an overall FTBL score of 114.83 points at the moment, Capdevila is 6th in the world ranking of defenders and could improve his position in the next game, into which he will go with a guaranteed 3-point bonus. The bonus derives from Villarreal’s 2:3 loss to No. 4 Sevilla FC.
Midfielder Cazorla scored the other goal for Villarreal after replacing former France international Robert Pires in the 65th minute. Cazorla added approximately 15 rating points to boost his tally to 81.26 points.
