Malcom scores on Clásico debut
That was quite some Clásico debut for Malcom! Not only did the Brazilian get to start the game, but he also notched up the only goal of the game. He was on the field for 76 minutes, being replaced by Carles Aleñá for the last quarter of an hour of the 1-1 draw with Real Madrid.
The game was 57 minutes old, and Barça were still trailing to Lucas Vazquez’s early opener, when the striker latched onto the rebound after Luis Suárez had hit the post. The confidentl smash past a stunned Sergio Ramos and Keylor Navas to levelled up the tie.
hat was Malcom's second goal in this season’s Copa del Rey, following on from the one netted against Cultural Leonesa in the opening round.
Debut goals are clearly Malcom’s thing. At Inter Milan he had only been on the field for two minutes of his Champions League debut before he had scored his first competitive goal for his new club. A moment well worth enjoying again:
