Dani Olmo scores on debut as Barcelona clinch comeback win vs Rayo Vallecano

New Delhi: New signing Dani Olmo’s late goal secured a tense 2-1 comeback win for Barcelona over Rayo Vallecano, maintaining their perfect start to the La Liga season.

After missing out in Barca’s first two games of the season as he was unregistered due to club’s financial struggle and failure in compiling with LaLiga’s Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules, Olmo came off the bench in the second half of the game to provide the much needed energy to Barca on his debut game after signing from RB Leipzig.

He netted the goal in the 82nd minute of the game after Pedri’s wonderful equalizer filled with elegance and composure in the 60th minute had cancelled out Unai Lopez’s early opener for Rayo.
