The new season of the most popular non english netflix series has finally dropped and has lived upto the expectations.

The series is now an emotion, what was a heist is now a war. This season of la casa de papel is the most thrilling, action packed and an emotional roller coaster. With every scene having an importance and the screenplay is so tightly packed that you can't remove your eyes from the screen for a bit also.

The music of the series has reached on next level. Whether it be the use of piano in heist by berlin or the use of rock music in the bank every scene gives you an authentic feel to it. The use of sound effects at appropriate timing is also applauding.

The visuals and vfx along with makeup and prosthetics is so realistic which makes this show believable even after impossible action.

The acting of each actor is brilliant but this time Berlin takes a special place in our heart and love for Berlin increases. Rafael also stands out in the series with such screen time. Alicia was shockingly amazing this time.

The story starts after the professor been discovered by Alicia and she keeps him in captivity. The gang faces a new problem besides army which is off course Arturo Roman or i should say Arturito. After this comes the main war while professor is freed by Alicia and takes the control. The situation arise that some are stuck in room and 8 opposite to them. One of them will die or rather not. It is still a confusion since the body is not shown and will be till Vol.2 .

The cinematography is amazing again with shots which force us to think how they were took. The colour grading is a little different than before which makes it even more good looking. The colours are used very significantly and give a nice sense of situation whether it be blue during tokio's past or red during her coming back to the point she started the series.

This season has everything to make your adrenaline rush and your mind confused, sad, angry and happy changing instantly. It is the most unpredictable season. It is not the season which will make you think much but it will make you feel very much

My rating - 8.5/10

Money Heist: What to Know About the International TV Phenomenon

https://ift.tt/eA8V8J

If you haven’t tuned into Money Heist yet, you’ve been missing one of the hottest series on Netflix right now. It’s sexy, absurdist fun, an action soap opera like no other, so addictively bingeable that it has stolen the hearts of a worldwide audience. But it’s more than escapist fare. Money Heist has also become a rallying cry of resistance that is changing the world. 

It almost didn’t happen. Netflix picked up Money Heist entirely by chance. If they hadn’t, the original series might have easily vanished into obscurity for English-speaking audiences. Once Netflix got it, it blew up and became their most watched non-English series.

Money Heist was originally broadcast on Spain’s Antena 3 channel in 2017 under its native title La Casa de Papel (The House of Paper). The first season was 15 episodes, told in two parts. The initial part garnered a healthy 45 million viewers but viewership plummeted when the second part was broadcast. With only half the audience remaining and the story complete, the show seemed at its end. Netflix acquired the series as part of an international catalog of titles, re-edited it into 22 shorter episodes, re-released it internationally later that year. The streamer didn’t even bother to promote it when they added to their queue. Nevertheless, it found a huge audience outside of Spain and viewership skyrocketed.

Season 1 is about a meticulously planned heist of the Royal Mint of Spain. The Professor (Álvaro Morte) is a criminal mastermind who assembles a gang of thieves. Each thief adopts the name of a city to conceal their true identities from each other, akin to the robbers in Reservoir Dogs. The story is told from the perspective of Tokyo (Úrsula Corberó), a brazen spitfire femme fatale who steals every scene she’s in. The thieves capture the Mint, taking dozens of hostages. Their plan is to print millions in unmarked bills. Meanwhile, the Professor plays a cat-and-mouse game with Inspector Murillo (Itziar Ituño) who is hot on his trail. 

Don’t Fall in Love During a Heist

Through Tokyo’s narration and copious flashbacks to the planning of the crime, Money Heist tells a gripping story of the ultimate anti-heroes. As tensions mount, the gang is at one another’s throats while navigating the Professor’s deceptive instructions. The Mint is surrounded by cops and time is running out. Gratuitous shots of ticking clocks increase the pressure, the same device deployed by original Mission: Impossible TV series to heighten suspense. Stockholm syndrome takes hold as the hostages fall for their captors. In classic Money Heist style, the main hostage who joins the gang adopts the name “Stockholm (Esther Acebo)”. The Professor and the Inspector engage in a deliciously dysfunctional romance. It’s all exceedingly sexy with the beautiful actors often scantily clad, and has a subversively sharp sense of humor. 

Despite its ludicrousness, Money Heist is so addictive in many ways. First off, it masters the cliffhanger. The suspense is relentlessly palpable and no matter how ridiculous some of the deus ex machina resolutions are, they’re still great fun to watch. Just like Game of Thrones, this show is merciless. Beloved main characters die in shockingly poignant death scenes. This keeps the suspense very real. You never know if your favorite character is going to make it. Of the seven thieves that enter the Mint with Tokyo – Berlin (Pedro Alonso), Denver (Jaime Lorente), Helsinki (Darko Perić), Moscow (Paco Tous), Nairobi (Alba Flores), Oslo (Roberto Garcia Ruiz) and Rio (Miguel Herrán) – three don’t make it out. 

Secondly, it’s about those characters. The ensemble cast delivers great performances across the board. Every role is rich, complex, and well-developed. Everyone has his or her strengths, weaknesses, and back stories and their emotional journeys resonate deeply. No one is entirely innocent. You can’t help yourself from rooting for them, even the villains. 

And third, Money Heist has style. Its passionate soundtrack has captured the ears of the world. The use of color, particularly red against darkly composed frames, is exquisitely captivating. Money Heist is a thrilling roller coaster ride that just has to be experienced. 

Enjoy It Until the Party is Over

The global following shocked the cast and crew. After season 1 wrapped, the show seemed finished. As the cast watched their social media following grow exponentially (an experience catalogued in Netflix’s documentary, Money Heist: The Phenomenon), they knew something was up. By 2018, Money Heist garnered several nominations and wins across the European awards circuit and even won the coveted Best Drama Series at the 46th International Emmys.

Consequently, Netflix reassembled the cast and crew for a second season, this time with a much bigger budget. Even though season 1 was self-contained, the show’s creator Álex Pina dreamed up a second season, one that was on a much grander scale, thanks to Netflix’s backing.

The second heist is in four parts. That may sound confusing because the upcoming season 5 will be split into two parts as well. Season 5 is actually parts 3 and 4 of the second heist story arc. “Heist 2” is already 16 episodes deep and it’s only the halfway point. 

For the second heist, the gang must reassemble to rescue one of their own after Tokyo makes another grievous mistake. And that rescue hinges upon robbing the Bank of Spain. New gang members join the survivors of the first robbery, and another more ruthless adversary, the pregnant Inspector Sierra (Najwa Nimri). Sierra is a more ruthless opponent than Murillo was for the first heist. When it comes to the Professor’s psychological chess game, Sierra flips the chess board upside down. Season 3 (Part 1 of the Bank of Spain heist) debuted exclusively on Netflix in the summer of 2019. Season 4 (Part 2) was released almost a year later in April 2020, and it was seen by 65 million households. That’s a million more viewers than watched Tiger King when it ran around the same time. 

Realizing they had a bankable hit, Netflix released Money Heist: The Phenomenon. The documentary showcases the astonishment of the cast and crew as they navigate their new found popularity from a show they thought was done. A season 2 opening scene, filmed in front of the historic Santa Maria del Fiore Cathedral in Florence, Italy, was almost ruined when rabid fans rushed the crew. However, do not watch Money Heist: The Phenomenon before seeing the show because it drops some major spoilers. 

We Are Dali

To hide their identities, the gang wears masks based on the famous Spanish surrealist artist Salvador Dali, replete with a red hooded jumpsuit. They force their hostages to wear the same costume to confuse the police. This Dali mask has become a new symbol of international rebellion, supplanting the Guy Fawkes mask from V for Vendetta on a global scale. Beyond Comic-Con cosplaying, the Dali mask has been appearing on protestors and in effigies around the world. Footage from these real life demonstrations appear in the show. 

Money Heist has had a profound effect on international football (“soccer” for we Yanks). Massive displays of Dali mask banners appeared at Saudi Arabia soccer stadiums. At the Karaiskaki Stadium, Greek soccer fans unfurled a huge Dali banner too. After their team won, they rushed the field wearing Money Heist costumes. Brazilian soccer superstar Neymar de Silva even makes a cameo in season 3 as a monk who wryly comments about his disdain for soccer. Silva claims Money Heist is his favorite show.  

There were even real life copycat heists. France fell victim to a shop hold-up and a hotel robbery where the perpetrators wore Dali masks. A 2019 daylight heist of the Mexican Mint was thought to have been inspired by the show. Perhaps the best one was when Justin Bieber’s five-billion-view music video ‘Despacito’ was hacked on YouTube. The hackers replaced it with an image of Money Heist in full Dali regalia with guns pointing out, accompanied by a call to ‘Free Palestine.’ 

Consequently, there has been some backlash. Cyprus banned Dali costumes for Carnival. Turkish journalists and politicians have admonished the show, describing it as rebel propaganda. The Professor describes it best in season 3. “The mask has become a symbol throughout the world of resistance, of indignations, of skepticism. It doesn’t matter. What matters is that it has inspired many people.” 

Ironically, Money Heist pilfered Dali’s image. The Gala-Salvador Dalí Foundation never gave the show its blessing for the use of the artist’s likeness. There’s no doubt that Dali is spinning in his grave for not getting paid royalties, but he must appreciate the surrealism here. 

Bella Ciao!

Beyond the now iconic Dali mask, Money Heist also revived a rebel ballad, the Italian protest song Bella Ciao. Bella Ciao means ‘Goodbye Beautiful’ and it was the anthem of anti-fascists of the Italian Resistance during WWII. Originally about toiling in rice fields under an oppressive boss, the lyrics evolved to describe the Resistance’s commitment to the cause with their lives. When translated from Italian, the lyrics end with “This is the flower of the partisan who died for freedom.” 

The Professor’s grandfather fought in the Italian resistance so he sings it with Berlin, his older brother, and teaches it to the gang. The song is frequently reprised throughout the series, most tellingly during the season 1 part 1 finale end credits. A montage of black-and-white footage decrying the evils of money fades to red as Bella Ciao plays.

Since Money Heist, over a dozen new versions of Bella Ciao have climbed the charts across Europe, with the Professor’s rendition placing first in Austria, second in Germany, and in the top twenty in Belgium, France, and Switzerland. It’s been covered by several EDM DJs like Steve Aoki and Hardwell. Bella Ciao has become a common chant at soccer matches, and was heard at the 2019 World Cup. When Open Arms rescued a boatload of fleeing immigrants docked in Lampedusa, the refugees sang Bella Ciao to celebrate their newfound freedom. 

The Last Times are Beyond Comparison

What might the finale hold? When we last left the gang, they were reunited in the Bank of Spain and determined to win ‘the war’ in honor of their latest fallen comrade. But Inspector Sierra got the drop on the Professor. With a gun to his head, she declared “Checkmate, son of a bitch.” Anyone who knows the show understands that it is volatile and unpredictable so it’s anyone’s guess what happens next. 

It’s clear that this is the end. When production wrapped on May 14th, Netflix tweeted “Thank you to all the fans for being part of La Resistencia! We can’t wait to show you how this story ends.”  However, Netflix is never one to kill a goose that lays golden eggs. 

Money Heist creator Álex Pina already launched another Netflix series, Sky Rojo. Season 1 premiered back in March 2021 and season 2 is slated for July. It’s the story of three women on the run, somewhat reminiscent of Thelma and Louise, only the threesome are prostitutes. It’s stylish and sexy, and received some critical acclaim. But it has nowhere near the impact of Money Heist. 

A Korean adaptation of Money Heist is in the works with Kim Hong-sun directing. Cast as the Professor is Yoo Ji Tae, who is most remembered for his mastermind role in Oldboy, and also had a part in a Korean TV adaptation of The Good Wife. Playing Tokyo will be Jeon Jong Seo, aka Rachel Jun, a newcomer with two feature films under her belt. 

This summer, an immersive event “Money Heist: The Experience” is set to tour London, Miami, Mexico City, New York, and Paris. Each city will get a different version of the experience, adapted to the venue, and the venues won’t be announced until just prior to the events open. This is another collaboration between Netflix and Fever, who previously staged “Stranger Things: The Drive Into Experience” in Los Angeles. 

Most of the cast of Money Heist were too engaged with filming the final season under pandemic restrictions to take on any new projects. The notable exception of Úrsula Corberó. Corberó is cast as the Baroness in the upcoming G.I. Joe Origins film, Snake Eyes. 

Money Heist held the title of Netflix’s most watched non-English series until a French show, ironically also about a heist, stole the crown. Lupin robbed Money Heist of the title in January 2021 racking up 76 million views. Lupin Part 2 debuted on June 11. When Money Heist returns, will it steal back Netflix’s most watched non-English series crown? Hopefully so. For Nairobi!

Money Heist, Parts 1-4, are available on Netflix now. Season 5 Volume 1 debuts on September 3, Volume 2 arrives on December 3, 2021.

Monster-Aufgabe gegen Napoli in der Salzburger Festung

Neuer Beitrag auf https://www.salzburg12.at/red-bull-salzburg/2019/03/monster-aufgabe-gegen-napoli-in-der-salzburger-festung/

Monster-Aufgabe gegen Napoli in der Salzburger Festung

Morgen ist es nun soweit. Wieder einmal ein „Endspiel“. Wie in der letzten Saison gegen Lazio Rom. Kann den Salzburgern gegen SSC Napoli der gleiche Geniestreich gelingen, wie gegen die Römer?

Schwere Ausgangslage

Das Hinspiel zwischen dem SSC Napoli und unserem FC Salzburg ging bekanntlich 3:0 aus. Vor knapp einer Woche haderte man nicht nur mit der Chancenauswertung, sondern auch mit der instabilen Verteidigung. Das soll sich morgen ändern. Trainer Marco Rose zur schweren Ausgangslage:

Die Ausgangssituation vor dem Match ist klar und für uns schwierig. Für uns gilt es, Dinge, die im Hinspiel nicht geklappt haben, gut zu machen. Erst dann wollen wir schauen, was noch geht bzw. was möglich ist.

Festung Salzburg

Seit mittlerweile 17 Heimspielen in der Europa League sind die Salzburger in ihrer „Festung“ ungeschlagen. In den letzten 16 Partien bekam man nie mehr als ein Gegentor, zehn Spiele davon endeten gar ohne Gegentreffer. Die letzten sechs Heimspiele wurden gewonnen. Spaziergang wird das (hoffentlich) für Napoli keiner:

Unentschieden

Beide Vereine spielten in der letzten Liga-Begegnung Unentschieden. Der FC Salzburg holte gegen Sturm Graz ein 0:0, SSC Napoli spielte gegen Sassuolo 1:1, wobei Insigne erst in der 86. Minute zum Ausgleich traf.

Personelles

Marin Pongracic fehlt weiterhin wegen einer Oberschenkelverletzung. Auch Zlatko Junuzovic ist aufgrund muskulärer Probleme (Verletzung aus Brügge-Match) im Oberschenkel nicht dabei. Xaver Schlager ist aus dem Hinspiel Gelb-gesperrt. Damit fehlt Salzburg nicht nur der wichtigste Mann in der Verteidigung, sondern auch zwei echte Mittelfeldmotoren.

SSC Napoli geht es aber nicht viel besser. Trainer Ancelotti muss auf seine Star-Innenverteidiger Kalidou Koulibaly und Nikola Maksimovic verzichten. Beide „stehen“ aufgrund einer Gelbsperre. Raúl Albiol (Knie-OP) ist weiterhin verletzt.

Stimmen zum Spiel

Diadie Samassekou über die kommende Aufgabe:

Wir haben beim Hinspiel leider nicht unser wahres Gesicht gezeigt. Da hat manches nicht so funktioniert, wie wir es gewohnt sind und auch können. Auch wenn die Ausgangslage für das Rückspiel nicht die beste ist, wollen wir unseren Fans wieder ein richtig gutes Spiel liefern. Egal, wie das Ergebnis in Napoli war – wir wollen mutig in die Partie Spiel gehen und nochmals alles versuchen. Und wir wissen, dass im Fußball vieles passieren kann. Aber es wird natürlich sehr schwierig.

Unparteiische

Das Spiel wird von einem spanischen Trio geleitet. Schiedsrichter ist Carlos del Cerro Grande (ESP), er wird an den Linien von Juan Carlos Yuste (ESP) und Roberto Alonso (ESP) unterstützt.

Carlos del Cerro Grande zückt gerne die Karten. In dieser Champions League-Saison (4 Einsätze) und der Europa League-Saison (2 Einsätze) zeigte er 21 (!!!) Gelbe Karten und einmal Gelb-Rot. Auf den Elfmeterpunkt zeigte der Spanier dreimal, davon gleich zweimal im CL-Achtelfinale Schalke gegen Man City.

Unloved: Picking the Best XI of Players Who Haven't Yet Earned a Senior International Cap

With the 2018 World Cup to look forward to throughout the summer, football fans can expect to see some of the brightest talents in World football shining on the biggest stage of them all.

Throughout the years there have been some truly great national sides packed full of top talents and the World Cup in Russia will be no exception.

However, there remains a large pool of players who have eluded an international call up, in spite of their abundance of talent.

Some of these players still have much of their career ahead of them and subsequently have the potential to finally pick up that elusive international cap however, some have seen their chance at a career at international level pass them by without so much as a look-in.

Here is a 'World XI' of players who are yet to be capped by their country at senior level.  

1. GK: Timo Horn

24-year-old FC Koln goalkeeper Timo Horn is among one of Europe's most talented shot stoppers, having consistently proven himself to be one of Die Geißböcke's best players, keeping an impressive 66 clean sheets since graduating from the Bundesliga outfit's academy in 2011.

Assuming Horn was born in any other country in the world he would almost certainly be his country's number one. However, it's unfortunate for the Cologne born keeper that he has to compete against a host of top-class German shot stoppers in Manuel Neuer,  Marc-André ter Stegen, Bernd Leno, Kevin Trapp, Loris Karius and Oliver Baumann.

Although Horn has competed for Germany at every youth level, he is yet to be called up to the senior team, and assuming Die Mannschaft continue in their habits of producing some of the world's best goalkeepers, it is likely to stay that way.

Honourable mention: Gerónimo Rulli 

2. LB: Alex Telles

Unfortunately for Alex Telles, the FC Porto man was born into a generation of top-class Brazilian left backs, including the likes of Marcelo, Alex Sandro and Filipe Luís.

Perfectly embodying the modern full back, Telles has pace to burn and is just as capable going forward as he is in defence, often proving to be Os Dragões creative outlet down the left flank, notching two goals and 18 assists from 37 games throughout the 2017/18 campaign.

At 25, there remains a chance Telles may be called up to the Seleção, with the pacey defender attracting attention from a host of top clubs and current first choice Brazil left back Marcelo potentially coming towards the tail end of his international career.

Honourable mention: Marcos Alonso

3. CB: Aymeric Laporte

Just how Aymeric Laporte hasn't received a call-up to the France squad is a mystery. The young defender was a consistently stoic figure in the Athletic Bilbao back line since graduating from their second team midway through the 2012/13 season.

While competition for the position of centre back in the France squad is tight, Laporte is more than capable of matching, or even outclassing, his compatriots, with fellow Manchester City man Eliaquim Mangala picking up eight caps for Les Bleus.

As a confident ball-playing centre back, the 23-year-old defender would fit seamlessly into Didier Deschamps' France squad, paying alongside either Raphaël Varane or Samuel Umtiti, the Manchester City new boy could prove to be a revelation at the World Cup.

4. CB: Jamaal Lascelles

Since returning from his loan to Nottingham Forrest, Jamaal Lascelles has proven to be one of Newcastle United's key players, playing at the heart of the Magpies defence and playing a huge part in their return to the Premier League in the 2016/17 season as they were crowned champions of the second tier of English football, maintaining the joint-best defence in the league in the process.

Under the tutelage of former Liverpool and Real Madrid manager Rafael Benítez, Lascelles has steadily developed into onto of the finest English defenders in the league, pushing the likes of Chris Smalling and Phil Jones for their spots in the Three Lions squad.

Possessing versatility as well as the leadership qualities that are lacking from many of the players in the current national team squad, it wouldn't be surprising if Gareth Southgate handed the 24-year-old defender his first senior England cap before the World Cup this summer.

5. RB: Mariano

Throughout his career, Mariano has been a solid full back, plying his trade for the likes of Tombense, Fluminense, FC Girondins de Bordeux, Sevilla and now Galatasaray. Despite never playing for his native Brazil at a senior level, he did earn a call up to the Cananrinha squad twice in 2010 and 2017, although he didn't make a single appearance, being kept out of the side by Dani Alves and Maicon.

Following the arrival of Luis Muriel, Mariano made a move to Istanbul to play for current Turkish Süper Lig leaders Galatasaray, whereby his contributions have seen Aslanlar maintain the third-best defensive record in the league, behind only Beşiktaş and İstanbul Başakşehir. 

Throughout his career the tireless defender has made 396 appearances, winning the Coupe de France, the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A and the Europa League. However, at 31-years-old, it seems unlikely the veteran defender will ever earn himself a cap for Brazil.

6. CM: Gabi

Perhaps one of the best players in recent times not to receive international recognition, Atletico Madrid's captain Gabi is considered the complete footballer by many fans, with the Spanish midfiedler becoming known for his industrious efforts across the centre of the park.

Being kept out of the Spain national side by the likes of Xabi Alonso, Sergio Busquets and Marcos Senna seeing the former Real Zaragoza man fail to make a single appearance for an already top quality La Roja side.

Playing as the beating heart of an immensely successful Atletico Madrid side in recent years, the 34-year-old midfielder has quality in numerous departments, a fantastic combative ball-winner with an unprecedented ability to distribute the ball and initiate the attack. As such, Gabi played a huge part in Los Rojiblancos 2013/14 La Liga winning campaign.

Honourable mention: Amadou Diawara

7. CM: Dani Parejo

An all-round midfielder, capable of being deployed in the centre of midfield or in a more advanced role, Valecia's captain Dani Parejo has become known for his extraordinary vision and passing ability since joining Los Murciélagos in 2011.

Despite being an integral member of Valencia's midfield since joining from Getafe with his metronomic passing has opening up numerous La Liga defences, seeing him rack up a total of 44 league assists from 272 appearances, Parejo has been kept out of the Spain squad by a wealth of world class talent, including Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Cesc Fabregas and David Silva.

Although his quality passing and attacking play has garnered the attention of the likes of Liverpool in recent years, the 28-year-old has remained loyal to the side he has made over 250 appearances for.

8. CM: Arthur

One of the best young Brazilians to burst onto the scene in the 2017 Brasileirão, Arthur has proven himself to be the future of the Seleção. The young midfielder's passing ability were second to none in Brazil last season, helping Grêmio to their third Copa Libertadores triumph.

Although Arthur doesn't operate as a traditional Brazilian midfielder, incorporating an abundance of fancy turns and flicks into his play, his transitional play and incisive passing have garnered him worldwide acclaim. 

Subsequently, Europe big clubs have come calling and Barcelona have agreed a deal that will allow them first refusal on the Brazil starlet. Arthur has already earned game time for his country at the Under-17 and Under-20 levels, and with the World Cup fast approaching it would be a surprise if Tite overlooked the 21-year-old for the trip to Russia.

9. LW: Leon Bailey

Eligible to play for Jamaica, the country of his birth, or (possibly?) England via ancestry, Bayer Leverkusen's talented young winger Leon Bailey is already being compared to legendary Bayern Munich and Netherlands winger Arjen Robben.

This season, Bailey has become an integral component of Heiko Herrlich's exciting Werkself outfit as they continue to cause problems for the rest of Germany's top teams. 

In turn, the youngster has attracted the attention of the media and the English FA who are courting the Jamaican-born attacker, as well as a host of top clubs across Europe including Manchester City. 

The player's agent and father however claims his son is prepared to wait until he is eligible to represent Germany. 

Bailey's pace and skill have allowed the 20-year-old to run rings around Bundesliga defences this season, racking up 11 goals and five assists from 25 appearances and helping Leverkusen compete with the likes of FC Schalke 04, Borussia Dortmund, Eintracht Frankfurt and RasenBallsport Leipzig for Germany's much sought after Champions League spots.

10. RW: Malcom

Brazil have an abundance of talent across the pitch at all age levels, and FC Girondins de Bordeux's Malcom is no exception. Between himself and Ajax's David Neres (who is also uncapped by Brazil) the Canarinha have their right wing covered for years to come.

Throughout his time with Les Girondins, Malcom has caused a innumerable amount of Ligue 1 defenders headaches, whether it be his ability to beat his marker effortlessly in a one-on-one scenario or pick out a teammate with an inch perfect pass, the 21-year-old Brazilian has all the skills in his locker to one day become a legend of the Seleção.

Competing for a place against the likes of Philippe Coutinho, Douglas Costa, Willian, Gabriel Jesus, Roberto Firmino and, of course, Neymar is no easy task. However, Malcom has continued in a stunning vein of form, pushing his seniors all the way for a place in Tite's squad.

11. ST: Wissam Ben Yedder

Wissam Ben Yedder has been enjoying a phenomenal season for Sevilla so far this campaign, moreover the Frenchman has consistently brilliant since breaking onto the scene at Toulouse, notching 80 goals across 206 games since the 2010/11 season.

At 27-years-old, the Sarcelles-born striker has had the option to represent Tunisia due to parental heritage, but has held out in the hopes he might one day represent Les Bleus on the international stage.

Unfortunately for Ben Yedder, he faces competition from a host of top attacking talent that hail from France however, his lethal form in the Champions League this season may just see Didier Deschamp's head turned in the direction of the Sevilla hitman as he considers his options for Russia.

Honourable mention: Lautaro Martínez

The long story of the heist ends with this season of money heist. The end is more dramatic and emotional then ever thought of.

The story continues with inspector Raquel with professor reaching to the planning house and Raquel inspecting the place with police officers and forensic team. While professor struggles to get out of there his gang is waiting for his routine call.Tokio and Berlin have opposing ways to proceed. She plays Russian roulette on Berlin to know about the plan in case professor gets caught. Nairobi stops her but after that Berlin throws out tokio from the royal mint. Untill professor reaches back , Rio was also going to be shot by Berlin. The plan to give money to hostages was not working on all and they were trying to escape. Arturo's plan to escape by replacing gun of Denver with fake gun and taking his real gun works but while escaping Monica turns to Denver's side and stops the mission. The professor does everything to stop the police from outside still Raquel finds out the truth and goes after him. Tokio returns to the mint because of professor's Master plan in a very shocking yet stylish way but Moscow gets injured during this. Denver and gang dig the tunnel in more speed in order to save Moscow's life. At end total 3 gang members martyr/die for the plan to succeed.

The season ends with Raquel receiving a coordinate after 1 year of heist and when she reached there professor was waiting.

The whole season is filled with many ups and downs and loss of life but accomplishment at the end. This season will make you sad also for those whom you didn't feel as good. It complete the heist at royal mint of spain.

This season is must watch for those who have watched season 1 and if didn't liked it also.
