Barcelona’s future star is back! Look at the goal that took Fati just 10 minutes to score

it took 322 days for Ansu Fati to see the field again after his injury. It happened in the 81st minute of the match against Levante, in which the Spanish superstar sealed Barcelona’s 3-0 victory.

Barcelona were successful right from the start on Sunday afternoon. Memphis Depay converted a penalty in the 6th minute and 8 minutes later Luuk de Jong scored another goal.

After that, the Catalan side controlled the match and allowed Levante virtually nothing. In the end, they enjoyed 70% ball possession and sent 20 shots at Aitor Fernandez’s goal, 12 of which went between the three posts.

Barcelona thus took advantage of the hesitation of Real Madrid, which leads La Liga with 17 points, and is now only 5 points behind its arch enemy, with a game to spare.

But even more important than the three points is the return of the 18-year-old winger, who should elevate Barcelona’s attacking game. After the departure of Lionel Messi, it is expected that Fati will be the one who will regularly win big trophies for the Catalan side.

There will be enormous pressure on the Spanish superstar, which he will have to bear if he wants to follow in the footsteps of his predecessor. However, the opening minutes on the pitch have shown that he has no problem with that.

Just the kind of impetus the Catalan side needed now. In just three days’ time it will face Benfica, which will be very important, followed by two league games against Atlético Madrid and Valencia.

Even then, Barcelona will not rest, as there is another Champions League match against Dynamo Kiev and then El Clásico. Luckily for Ronald Koeman’s charges, both of these matches are being played at the Camp Nou.
