Nearly two decades ago, FC Barcelona gave the world a wonder-kid by the name of Lionel Messi. After nearly two decades yet another 17-year-old has caught the imagination of the fans across the world. Marc Guiu made his debut for FC Barcelona and scored on his debut for his side.

The win over Bilbao on Sunday FC Barcelona has climbed to number three in the table. Real Madrid is at the top of the La Liga table while surprise team Girona is in the second spot. Just one point separates the three teams after 10 rounds of games were completed.

FC Barcelona is famous for its youth academy and producing some amazing players. Over the last few years, the likes of Messi, Gerard Pique, Cesc Fabregas and many more have come through the famed La Massia.

Marc Guiu makes an instant impact on his arrival –

FC Barcelona was finding it difficult to break the deadlock as the game was tied at 0-0. That’s when Xavi made one of the best tactical decisions as he gave Marc Guiu in the 80th minute.

The striker made a clever run as he was fed with the perfectly played-through ball pass. The youngster side-stepped the keeper and curled it past the diving stopper to score his goal. What made it even more impressive was the fact that Marc Guiu had got his goal after just 22 seconds since making his debut.

Once the goal went in Marc Guiu was seen celebrating on the ground and the youngster’s parents too were overcome with joy. That was the only goal of the game Barcelona held on to win the game 1-0.

Xavi speaking after the game was in praise of the 17-year-old. The former midfielder said “I don’t have a problem with looking at our talent at home. On the contrary, we only need to give them confidence. Just like it happened to me when I was 17 or 18 years old. When  we see a young player is ready we send him out onto the field”

The FCB manager also said, “The whole club should celebrate today. All the people who have worked with him, it’s a sign of good work being done”. One just hopes Marc Guiu can be the next breakout star of the football world.
