Ligue 1 has no shortage of exciting attacking teams this season.

One such side is Lille OSC under Bruno Génésio, who have scored 23 goals in their first 12 league games of the campaign.

That tally is only good enough to place Lille as the fifth-highest goalscorers in Ligue 1 so far.

Meanwhile, Les Dogues have generated 22.93 xG this term, placing them third for that particular metric.

One of Génésio’s key attackers has been Félix Correia (178cm/5’10, 72kg/158lbs), who joined Lille from Gil Vicente in Liga Portugal for €7m this past summer.

The 23-year-old has had an eventful young career.

Starting out in Sporting CP’s academy, Correia joined Manchester City at 18 years of age in 2019 for €4.55m but moved to Serie A giants Juventus for €10.5m a year later without making a first-team appearance for Pep Guardiola’s side.

The Portuguese playmaker appeared just once for Juventus’ first team, a five-minute cameo in Serie A versus Udinese under Andrea Pirlo in 2021, as his tenure at Allianz Stadium was packed with loan spells.

Correia found himself back home in Portugal last season after joining Gil Vicente from Juventus for €3.25m in the summer of 2024, scoring nine goals and providing four assists for the lower-table side, which earned him a move to Lille this past summer, where he has continued his improved form under Bruno Génésio tactics.

This Félix Correia scout report shares analysis of Félix Correia style of play at Lille in 2025/2026 via analysis of Correia’s key playmaking strengths and his role in Lille tactics.

Real Madrid failed to secure a win against Rayo Vallecano in Gameweek 12 of the 2025/2026 La Liga season.

Rayo Vallecano ended Real Madrid’s four-game winning streak by holding them to a goalless draw at Estadio de Vallecas.

Los Blancos entered the game with a clear objective: to take all three points and strengthen their position at the top of the table.

Despite dropping two points, Real Madrid remain in first place, though Barcelona, sitting second, are now just three points behind.

This game also provided an opportunity for Real Madrid to bounce back after their trip to Anfield, where they had lost to Liverpool in the UEFA Champions League; however, they failed to do so.

“After the Anfield game, which is now behind us, today was one of those games that is a bit difficult to bring us back to the level we want to be at.” – Xabi Alonso after the Rayo Vallecano game.

This tactical analysis explores how Real Madrid were unable to get the result they wanted from this game.
