Historic goal by Pedri! Barça strikes first in the Copa del Rey Final

Pedri in star mode: a goal to frame

It was the first quarter of an hour when Lamine Yamal, showing his usual privileged vision, filtered a pass back from the right wing. The ball found Pedri at the edge of the area, who didn't hesitate: he wound up the shot with perfect spin and placed the ball in the left corner, impossible for Thibaut Courtois.

The play was a demonstration of pure talent, a connection between two of FC Barcelona's most promising players, and put the score at 1-0 in favor of the 'culé' team in the final played at La Cartuja stadium (Seville).
