When it plays, it answers. The Valencian forward of the FC Barcelona, Paco Alcácer, hardly took eight minutes in premièring the marker of the Barcelona-Athletic, this Sunday in the Camp Nou, when receiving a perfect assistance of Jordi Alba, in the interior of the area of Kepa Arrizabalaga, to drill the Basque goal and advance to the Barcelona group in front of the ones of the 'Cuco' Ziganda.

It ran the minute 8 of game when Philippe Coutinho received a balloon in the left flank of the centre of the field, after the Barça surpassed the offensive pressure of the Athletic of Bilbao. The Brazilian combined in depth with Jordi Alba and, after a return of the of L'Hospitalet, went back to find to the Barcelona side so that this, with a big vision of game, assisted to Paco Alcácer.

The Valencian forward read to perfection the intentions of his mate Jordi Alba and expected the balloon practically in the penalty spot, from where took out a finish raso and crusader, at first, that went in in the goal of Kepa Arrizabalaga to generate the 1-0.

It was a good played collective of the FC Barcelona, although later the repetition showed a doubtful position of Jordi Alba to the hour to receive the last pass of Coutinho, before assisting to Alcácer. In the image could see how the carrilero culé was on line with the last defender of the Athletic, although with the slightly advanced body, in a susceptible action of offside.

Possible offside of Jordi Alba

The case is that the assistant did not raise the pennant and the referee neither signalled offside, by what the Barça achieved to advance in the marker of form very early, taking advantage of to continuation to generate an authentic gale of occasions of goal against the goal of the Athletic.

This is the sixth goal of the season 2017-18 for Paco Alcácer in all the competitions, the third in LaLiga Santander. In spite of having of few minutes of game, the Valencian shows that it is able to take advantage of the minutes of 'nine' when it is not Luis Suárez on the lawn.
