Dro's Champions League debut and assist.
Hi community!
The youth player started on the left wing, with Fermín as the attacking midfielder.
With the assist to Fermín, he became the second-youngest assist provider in the competition's history.
When Fermín López scored the second goal of the match, the first thing he did was turn to Dro Fernández to thank him for the assist. It was a way of letting him know that the goal was also his. Dro's first half was nothing like the one he put in against Real Sociedad, in what was his debut for Barcelona's first team.
According to Opta, Dro became the second-youngest player in Champions League history to provide an assist. At 17 years and 282 days old, only Giovanni Reyna, with Borussia Dortmund, had achieved this feat (17 years and 97 days). Dro finished the first half with 21 saves and a 14/16 pass percentage.
In the first half, Dro shook off the memory of the match against Real Sociedad. That afternoon, the team environment, like Toni Fernández's debut against Girona, wasn't conducive to his brilliance. Against Olympiacos, starting on the wing, despite having the soul of a playmaker, he looked more free.
Dro played his third match of the season against Olympiacos. His first competitive appearance of the season was with Barça Atlètic, on the first matchday of the Second Federation, as it coincided with a break for international matches. Since the summer, during a preseason in which he dazzled Hansi Flick, he's been in first-team dynamics. And that's how it will continue.
Dro's assist came after Pedri recovered the ball from a good pressing move by Flick's team. For the first time in recent matches, Barcelona managed to create danger thanks to steals in the opponent's half. Dro played a part in this.
See You soon!
