On Sunday, Barcelona played their first game of their pre-season tour through Japan and South Korea and won 3-1 against Vissel Kobe. The competition contained several points of talks, with the most important about the new faces – of whom two drow and Jofre Torrents were.
According to MD, Dro – who scored Barcelona's third goal – thought about getting his first team debut by Hansi Flick, whose impact he spoke.
“Unbelievable, to be honest. I was nervous when I came up, but the first chance fell for me and it went behind the net. It was my first game with the best club in the world and I was very nervous. Talk to Hansi a little bit, my teammates … Thanks for the trust.”
Jofre was also impressed during his second half of Cameo in Kobe, and he gave his opinion about making his debut to the media after the game (via MD).
“I am very happy and happy that I was able to enjoy these minutes that the coach gave me. I am very happy that I was able to fill my dream since I was small, namely making my debut with the first team of Barça. At first I was a bit nervous, but the moment the referee blew the whistle, the nerves went away.
“I hope to give a very good level and try to achieve my goals, namely to get the maximum number of minutes with the first team of Barcelona. That is what I will try to do, keep working and try to achieve this. I know they are very good players (Bald and Gerard MartÃn) and I will try to show the coach.
In short, Barcelona will make the trip to South Korea to continue their preparations for the season, with two more games. Van Dro and Jofre are expected to get under their belt in those games.
