It is safe to say that he is a left-back? Is it true that he is a container to-box midfielder? No, he's just Marcelo.
Actually he is a left-back in light of the fact that that is the manner by which he's recorded on the group sheet, however in the event that there's anything to detract from the Brazilian's execution in Genuine Madrid's frantic 4-2 additional time triumph over Bayern Munich, it is this is a player who declines to - and is leniently unequipped for - playing inside the ordinary limits of his position.
The history books will demonstrate that Cristiano Ronaldo chose this amusement with a cap trap (German and Catalan versions may concentrate on refereeing blunders) however it was Marcelo's pizazz, limitless vitality and cautious industriousness that helped his side climate a Bavarian tempest at the Bernabeu.
The previous Fluminense man made his first fundamental intercession as right on time as the ninth moment, putting his body on hold to hinder an objective bound Thiago Alcantara exertion.
As a matter of fact, the 28-year-old additionally gave Arjen Robben substantially an excess of space to get cross-field passes and dispatch unsafe balls into the case.
Be that as it may, the bad habit skipper was left with a great deal excessively to do against the Flying Dutchman and wandering ideal back Philippe Lahm in the primary half, as Genuine got themselves extended and over-keep running via Carlo Ancelotti's charges.
In any case, in genuine Marcelo style, he declined to give cautious challenges a chance to diminish his forward attacks.
The 28-year-old took up the part of head counterattacking outlet, and furthermore made a boatload of value chances when his side had ownership of the ball.
For sure his assaulting verve was vital to assuaging his troubled cautious partners, and empowered Genuine to some way or another stagger into the changing area at halftime without surrendering.
The second half started as did the primary - with the bad habit skipper sparing his group's bacon, this time taking Robben's chipped shot off the line with Keylor Navas well beaten.
So decided was the Brazil global to foil Bayern's goalscoring endeavors that, looking back, it won't not have been the most exceedingly awful thought to give him the goalkeeping gloves for Robert Lewandowski's extra shot.
The 64th moment presentation of Marco Asensio helped Los Blancos safeguard their left channel with more assuredness, and Marcelo quickly begin lifting his execution to incredible statures.
Now and again, it appeared as though he was playing as a guard, left winger and No.
10 in the meantime.
There were bubbling low balls, whipped-in crosses, slipped-in through passes, a plenty of spills and even a strong shot on target.However, the No.
12 offered much something other than assaulting grandiosity, as he set a case with his work rate and relentless running.
His energetic approach was epitomized by one arduous, lung-blasting keep running in the 93rd moment to keep the ball in play close to the midway line, clench hands pumping into his trunk like a marathoner at the last extend.
Be that as it may, the club veteran spared his most noteworthy play of the diversion, and ostensibly his vocation, for additional time.
Taking ownership in his own a large portion of, the left-back circled the ball forward to Toni Kroos, acknowledged the arrival go to feet and continued to pillage directly through the heart of the Bayern barrier, before unselfishly laying the ball off to Ronaldo to finish his cap trap.
It was a move that was strikingly like his additional time objective against Atletico Madrid in the 2014 Champions Group last, in that he detected a tiring adversary and chose to find them napping with a sudden burst of vitality and unequivocal quality.
This time in any case, the Rio de Janeiro-conceived man left behind a simple one-on-one goalscoring chance to rather select Ronaldo, whose objective will shockingly be discolored by the way that he was in an offside position.
It feels like an incredible disgrace that Marcelo didn't score himself as he would've earned a completely merited spot on the scoresheet, with an objective that would have definitely gone down as one of the best in the historical backdrop of the Champions Alliance knockout stages.
Yet, maybe it's just suitable that he searched for a partner rather, as it exemplified how his style, vitality and daringness were committed towards the aggregate cause as opposed to the quest for individual applauses.
The Brazilian completed his 400th diversion for Genuine with 68 passes (second just to Toni Kroos), making the same number of possibilities (8) as Robben, Franck Ribery, Alcantara, Arturo Vidal and Xabi Alonso joined and finishing a bigger number of spills than any other person on the pitch.
This was genuinely an execution for the ages from Marcelo, and one that Madridistas will be all
