Photos: Barcelona star’s sensational defence-splitting pass vs Getafe
Still shots of the latest moment of brilliance conjured up by Barcelona star Pedri on Saturday evening have come to the fore online.
And they go at least some way towards justifying the level of genius involved.
Pedri was for his part in from the off once more, as Barcelona made the trip to the Estadio Coliseum for a La Liga meeting with Getafe.
And the 22-year-old wasted little time in making his presence firmly felt.
Inside the 10-minute mark, Jules Koundé opened the game’s scoring, on the rebound.
This came after the Frenchman was slipped in behind by Pedri, who took half of Getafe’s XI out of the game courtesy of one flick of his right boot.
The angle and weight of the delivery were nothing short of flawless, with Koundé having in a split second gone from a non-factor to a lead protagonist in the attacking sequence:
Pedri put 6 defenders asleep with that pass.
