Day of debuts at Huesca

Todibo and Wagué made their official first team debuts whilst Riqui Puig and Murillo also played their first minutes in the league

After beating Manchester United 1-0 at Old Trafford, Ernesto Valverde’s side took a point away at Huesca in La Liga to move that little bit closer to the league title.

The game was one to remember for Jean-Clair Todibo and Moussa Wague as they both made their official debuts for the first team. Furthermore, Riqui Puig and Jeison Murillo both made their first appearances in La Liga in a Barça shirt after having played in the Copa del Rey earlier in the campaign.

All four were included in the starting 11 and Todibo, Wague and Murillo played all 90 minutes with Riqui Puig playing 67 minutes before he was substituted. With the second leg of the Champions League quarter final just around the corner against Manchester United, coach Ernesto Valverde made several changes to the starting XI which turned out to the youngster to take the field this season in La Liga with an average age of 24 years and 133 days.
