Ferran Torres has taken a step forward and is beginning to turn his situation around at FC Barcelona. Despite the fact that the Blaugrana team had a ‘bitter’ night at the Benito Villamarín, the ‘Shark’ gave hope for a few minutes to the Barcelona fans with the goal that, momentarily, gave the three points to those led by Hansi Flick.
The player from Foios received a great pass from Lamine Yamal and beat the Betis goalkeeper with a well-placed shot, his second consecutive goal after the one he celebrated against Mallorca. With this goal, his third of the season, the Barça ‘7’ has scored five goals against Betis, making the Andalusians the team against whom he has scored the most goals in his entire sporting career.
A goal with a special dedication
Ferran celebrated his goal by showing a shirt with a message of thanks to all those who showed solidarity with the Valencian Community after the DANA. “I wanted to express my gratitude to all the people who helped with the DANA,” said the player at the end of the match.
“In the first half we weren’t all that sharp. In the second we improved, but we weren’t able to close out the game and defend the result. We’ll have to think about the next one, as there’s hardly any time to rest,” continued the striker about Barca’s draw in Seville.
Finally, he spoke about Frenkie de Jong’s penalty on Victor Roque and once again criticised the team’s performance. “I didn’t see the penalty, I think he took the boot from him. If they protested so much, maybe there’s something to blame, but we weren’t good. If we had been good, we wouldn’t have to think about those things,” he concluded.
