RDT removes the thorn against Barcelona

“I see in his eyes that he will get the thorn out against Barcelona, ​​he wants to score, you’ll see,” Vicente Moreno warned on Saturday about Raúl de Tomás. And what if he took it from the top scorer parakeet. He settled a pending issue in a big way and against the eternal rival of the Blue and Whites.

He signed a great goal in the 65th minute to consummate Espanyol’s comeback after an exquisite pass from the ‘magician’ Darder, the other great parakeet protagonist of this Sunday’s intense derby. RDT controlled the ball with his chest and shot Ter Stegen, causing the RCDE Stadium to fall, surrendering to his idol, who did not fail in an appointment marked in red.

The striker went crazy first and made a pineapple with his teammates, but later RDT celebrated with his characteristic yoga position.

Capital Act

But RDT not only scored a golden goal, but also culminated a capital performance, one of his best games as a blue and white player. He pressed, defended, scratched and led the Barça defense, overwhelmed on several occasions by the quality and the unchecking of the Madrid killer from Espanyol.

This Sunday’s target is the first that De Tomás has done to Barcelona as a parakeet. The striker had faced the culé team four times and had always been defeated, until today, despite having managed to score on one occasion but it was with the Rayo Vallecano shirt.

RDT wanted to be important, they arrived very motivated. And he was the protagonist, although he ended up very angry, desperate, after De Jong’s goal in extremis. It couldn’t be any other way because he had left his soul and the draw, because of how the derby had turned out, tasted like defeat on the blue and white side. The day that shone against Barcelona could not be crowned with a RDT victory.
