Ebrima Tunkara played a starring role on Tuesday in the UEFA Youth League as Barcelona’s Under-19s drew 3-3 against Aston Villa. The 16-year-old was named in the starting XI for the match along with Hamza Abdelkarim who dropped down from the first-team squad.

Tunkara needed only nine minutes to open the scoring, running unmarked into the box and rising high to direct a header goalwards. Goalkeeper Owen Asemota blocked the effort but couldn’t prevent Tunkara knocking home the rebound from close range for 1-0.

The teenager then turned provider for Barcelona’s second goal, driving forwards from a central position before laying it off to Joni Hernandez to finish and double the hosts’ lead.
