There was no need to be late this Sunday evening for the match between Grenade and the Barça. A bit to everyone’s surprise, the local team actually opened the scoring following 17 short seconds.
Genesis of this ultra early goal, a loss of ball by Gavi and poor alignment of the Catalan defense. Launched deep, Bryan Zaragoza was not asked to go and crucify Marc-André ter Stegen and become a local hero.
He also took the opportunity to dust off a record dating from 2011. At the time, Karim Benzema had to wait… 23 seconds to score a goal once morest Barça. Zaragoza therefore becomes the fastest scoring opponent of the 21st century once morest the Catalans. Not bad at all.
Note that at the half-hour mark, Zaragoza even allowed itself the luxury of scoring a double, thus forcing Barça to embark on a perilous attempt to come back (2-0).
So did this comeback take place? Yes… and no, since the Catalans did not manage to snatch victory. They nevertheless managed to scrape a small point by coming back from this disbursement by two goals. The first fell just before half-time, from the feet of prodigy Lamine Yamal (16 years old) who became the youngest scorer in La Liga history. At the very end of the match, the eternal Sergi Roberto came through to avoid a Catalan defeat and fix the score at 2-2.
