At just 17 years old, Marc Guiu is already well-known to many Barcelona supporters. The young teenage star, who scored the game’s lone goal in the closing seconds of the match against Athletic Bilbao, has already guaranteed that his worth will soar.
Dream Debut
He was introduced by Xavi in the 79th minute to give the Barcelona squad some offensive flair, and he quickly established himself. Guiu had the ball nestled in the back of the net 23 seconds after entering the field.
Thanks to an excellent through pass from Joao Felix, Marc Guiu was able to position himself with a single, running touch before unleashing a thunderous strike that went past Unai Simon and destroyed the Bilbao goal.
According to MisterChip (Alexis), Guiu, a product of La Masia, officially becomes the third fastest player in La Liga history to score on their debut. Having joined the group at an early age.
Marc Guiu: Road to Glory
The teenage striker was hoping for an opportunity to play for the first squad after making appearances for many Barcelona youth and affiliate teams. He was called up for the first time in the Barcelona preseason. But since his unfortunate injury, Robert Lewandowski has often been called up to the main team.
But he just got to make his formal debut against Bilbao a few hours ago. Guiu, who scored shortly after entering the game, was overjoyed. After the game, he went so far as to say:
It’s unbelievable. I’m having fun right now. I’ve spent my entire life working towards this chance, and everything worked out beautifully.
Xavi The Mastermind
Xavi divulged an intriguing nugget of knowledge. The Barcelona coach said that he has previously instructed Guiu to watch out for his big moment when it comes before letting him go:
“I informed Marc Guiu that he should use the opportunity to score. That’s precisely what he did in the end.”
At such a young age, Guiu is already in the public eye because of this objective. But if this evening is any indication, the young striker with big dreams is just getting started. It appears that he wants to assist Barcelona in becoming better.
It should be a fascinating journey because he has a quality group of players surrounding him and a devoted coach.
