Barcelona itself went down with a 3-4-2-1 formation. The duet of Lionel Messi and Pedri behind the striker, was so dangerous in this match. The last name in particular, deserves two thumbs up!
Reporting from BrandPedri, who is an 18-year-old young player, does not look awkward in a duet with the star Messi. Both of them work together to mess up the opponent’s defense with 1-2 short passes.
In the 20th minute, for example, Lionel Mesi passes to Pedri and then runs to the front of the penalty box. Pedri controlled the ball a little and returned to Messi, who after a moment Messi fired a measured shot but unfortunately the goalkeeper thwarted.
Lionel Messi’s goal in the 65th minute, came from Pedri’s excellent assist. De Jong made a short pass to the running Pedri.
Pedri with a heel pass directs the ball to Messi who is sprinting behind him. Messi had the ball well under his control, stabbed into the penalty box, was not caught up by the defenders, and the ball was shot easily.
Messi also seemed excited by Pedri’s action. It seems, Pedri could be his deadly duet this season!
Pedri has indeed won the trust of Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman. He has played 14 times in Laliga, starting eight times.
Pedri often changed his position. Sometimes a duet with Philippe Coutinho in the middle or plotted as an attacking midfielder behind the striker.
Pedri’s duet with Messi in midfield seems to be Barcelona’s new weapon.
