1×1 of the U21: Brahim Díaz and Riqui shine against the Faroe Islands

Great game by Brahim Díaz, who only needed 45 minutes to act as the great star of the U-21. Oscar Rodríguez and Riqui Puig were the highlights of the first half of La Rojita against the Faroe Islands.

Josep: Successful and attentive the few times he had to intervene. It is essential to have a guaranteed goalkeeper in this type of match: the few that he had to stop, he stopped.

Pipe: Serious match yours. He was not particularly active in attack but kept his band well protected. Porro came in for him in 68 '.

Guillamon: Very solvent, as almost always. What little work he had he solved without problems. Always with good judgment when taking the ball.

Basin: He saw the only yellow for La Rojita when he was late to a divided ball. Otherwise, it showed solidity.

Pedrosa: He brushed the goal after a great personal play in which he drove the ball for 20 minutes and ended up shooting over the goal.

Zubimendi: He is establishing himself as a pivot in the U-21 in a position that had no clear owner. Always well placed and with criteria to get the ball played. His teacher in the Real affiliate was Xabi Alonso … We will have to follow in his footsteps closely.

Riqui Puig: Of more less. The player who had the most contact with the ball in the first half. At times, he moved the national team at will in a game in which he had to show Koeman that he can give him minutes at Barça. He was replaced by Pedri at game time.

Oscar: He was about to score two goals in the first minutes: the first after dodging several rivals on a tile in the area and the other after a free kick. Zachariasen avoided the goal both times with saving hands. He was in almost all the dangerous plays of Spain in the first half. Brahim's entrance overshadowed him in the second.

Barrenetxea: Disappeared in the first part. It barely came into play. He was replaced after the break by Brahim Díaz.

Handful: He played false 9, which is not his usual position. He was a bit lost at first but ended up having a couple of pretty clear chances. Antoñín replaced him in the 60th minute.

Cucurella: I'd tire the Road Runner himself in a Looney Tunes chase. He had La Rojita's best chance in the first half but his shot just brushed the post. As insistent as ever.

Brahim: In the interview with AS last Wednesday, they asked him if he was left-handed and did not know what to answer. Well, it is clear: it is ambidextrous. De la Fuente was looking for more vertigo in attack and found it in Brahim. On the first ball he touched, he was about to score a Maradonian goal. On his second play he found the winning goal. He scored one more in the match after an excellent personal move .. His crack match.

Antoñín: Entered by Puado and almost scored with a head on the first ball he touched. He moved well on the front lines and teamed up with Pedri and Brahim several times to create danger.

Pedri: Like Brahim, he gave La Rojita's attack another air, much more dangerous in the second half than in the first.

Joint: Barely had an impact in the 20 minutes in which he was on the pitch.
