Hansi Flick surprises Barcelona duo after qualifying in the King’s Cup against Barbastro
Barcelona advanced to the Round of 16 in the Copa del Rey with a 4-0 victory over Barbastro. Their next match will be in the Spanish Super Cup semi-finals against Bilbao, with the winner facing the victor of the other semi-final between Real Madrid and Mallorca.
In the Copa del Rey clash, young talent Pablo Torre stood out, contributing to the team’s success by assisting with the second and third goals, before scoring the fourth goal himself. Another promising talent, Toni Fernandez, came on as a substitute and showcased his potential, earning recognition as Barcelona’s second-youngest debutant at 16 years and 173 days, just behind Lamine Yamal.
German coach Hansi Flick, according to El Nacional, expressed great satisfaction with the performances of Torre and Fernandez, assuring that they will receive more playing time in the second half of the season. He highlighted that Barcelona possesses two world-class prospects who will play an important role in the team’s efforts to reclaim titles and rise to the top.
