The former Parisian spent about twenty minutes on the ground, without really highlighting.
In the absence of the tricolor star, it was the young Gonzalo Garcia who occupied the point of the Madrid attack. And in what way! In four matches played in the tournament, the 21 -year -old Spanish striker has compiled 3 goals, including one against the watch lady, and a decisive pass. Strugging beginnings that did not surprise Xabi Alonso.

It's a typical number 9, he reminds me of Raul “Said the new White House coach about his nugget, who scored 25 goals in 36 games with the reserve last season, and add:” Garcia is always well placed, always on the lookout for the slightest opportunity. His work ethics are great. Castilla players, when they have a chance, fight to grasp it. That's exactly what he does. We need him. We want him to be there and we are happy for him. »»
