Barcelona returned to winning ways with a 6-1 victory over Deportivo Alaves. The display featured several impressive individual performances. One of the most encouraging on the night was Brian Farinas, who made his official first-team debut as a right-back.
Despite playing in an unfamiliar position, he delivered an outstanding performance and repaid Hansi Flick’s faith in him. The 20-year-old midfielder started at right-back for Barça and produced numbers that highlight his remarkable composure.
Farinas recorded 115 touches, the fourth-highest tally among Barcelona players, and completed 101 passes during his 90 minutes on the pitch. Understandably, for a midfielder who has come through La Masia, the most impressive statistic was his passing accuracy.
