100% passes completed, 100% duels won – Barcelona star’s impressive stats vs Mallorca | OneFootball

The impressive performance conjured up by Barcelona summer signing Joan García on Saturday has been aptly reflected in the statistics.

This comes after the 24-year-old enjoyed a competitive debut to remember in Blaugrana colours.

Barcelona of course marked their return to action a short time ago, making the trip to Son Moix for a meeting with RCD Mallorca.

When all was said and done, Hansi Flick’s troops emerged on the right side of a 3-0 result, courtesy of goals on the part of all of Raphinha, Ferran Torres, and Lamine Yamal.

The aforementioned Joan, meanwhile, featured from the off, just hours on from having his registration with La Liga confirmed.

And as alluded to above, the former Espanyol standout went on to enjoy a fine individual showing.

En route to keeping a clean sheet, Joan looked in full control of things, quick with his reflexes, sharp off his line, and confident in possession.

And such exploits on the part of the shot-stopper have since been aptly summed up by the statistics.

As per Sofascore, Joan completed 100% of his 16 passes, including 2/2 long passes. On top of this, the Spaniard won 100% of his duels, both in the air and on the ground.

A hugely encouraging start for Barcelona’s new no.1.
