Instead of carrying out a usual action, a cross to an area where five Barcelona shooters were waiting, the new signing of Barça put a precise pass on the edge of the area for Pedri, who controlled the ball and immediately spotted Dembéle's uncheck inside the box. area, an area unprotected by those of Ancelotti.
The canary saw the space to put the ball to the Frenchman, although he also had the help of Oriol Romeu, who blocked the possible cut by Camavinga, the only Real Madrid player who could spoil Xavi Hernández's board.

Dembélé, who in recent hours has been in the news for PSG's intention to pay his clause, finally opted with a hard cross shot with his right leg that surpassed Thibaut Courtois' stretch. The Frenchman, who came out in the second half of the first friendly against Arsenal, opened his goal tally this preseason.
