Riqui Puig's anger with the referee during the match against Cornellà

Barcelona sealed their pass to the round of 16 this Thursday after defeating, not without suffering, Cornellà de Segunda B thanks to goals from Dembélé and Braithwaite in extra time.

The Barça team was nervous during much of the game after missing two penalties in the first ninety minutes and before the fear that the same thing that happened to Real Madrid against Alcoyano would happen to them.

That tension could also be seen in the face of Riqui Puig, one of the young talents of the Barça quarry, as revealed by El Chringuito. The youth squad had his pluses and minuses with the match referee, the referee Soto Grado, to whom he said “Speak well and with respect “, to which the referee replied:” Don't yell at me. “

The referee actually showed Puig yellow in minute 6 of the match for “protesting one of my decisions”, as reflected in the minutes of the match, although several of the participants of El Chiringuito thought that the referee went in search of Puig in this set. Faced with this situation and the possible fear of staying with ten players, Koeman decided to switch to Puig at half-time to give entry to Ousmane Dembélé, who despite missing a penalty was one of the team's heroes with his goal in the first minute of extra time.
