André Gomes cuajó one very good performance this Saturday against the UD The Palms in the Camp Nou, possibly the best since it landed in the Barcelona group, and although erró two clear occasions of goal that would have allowed him première to level goleador with the T-shirt culé, as it did for example Aleix Vidal with his target in the minute 80.
The question is that the FC Barcelona-The Palms served so that André Gomes, one of the costliest signings economically of the last times (35 fixed millions more 20 in variables), began already to soltarse in the centre of the field, endowing to the team of verticality every time that recovered a balloon, or when it received between lines.
The luso is a portento physical that, in addition to being fast in the driving, has a technical quality that allows him shoot from out of the area, assist and combine quickly with his mates. Precisely it could do all this and more against the UD The Palms, in spite of that it did not have of the sufficient precision as to put the balloon inside the goal.
The two occasions marradas by André Gomes
Had two occasions to do it in the first-half. One after a good assistance of Luis Suárez that it allowed him shoot point-blank, although Javi Varas covered very well the spaces in the goal and diverted the shot to corner. And another opportunity after a glorious control in the interior of the area.
The Portuguese remained only in front of the exit of Javi Varas, but the nerves did that his shot left above the goal, with a big power and without having required the sufficient. In any case, seems that little by little André Gomes goes deploying his potential in the half field, what definitely is a big news for the interests culés.
