Patri named Gamper MVP
Mallorcan midfielder Patri Guijarro was named the MVP of the Joan Gamper match against Montpellier
She scored the second and third goal of a 6-0 win at the Estadi Johan Cruyff. The first was a moment of sheer class as she latched onto the end of a clearance and did a splendid job of the rest. Goalkeeper Salvador could barely so any more than admire the brilliance of the perfect strike.
There were no flies on her second goal either, which came right on the edge of half-time. But there were other moments of class from the woman wearing the captain's armband. Her assist right at the end for Ari Arias to score goal number of six was quite superb, Sadly she couldn't round off her impeccable performance with a hat-trick when her late penalty was saved.
"The people enjoyed themselve3s and that's the most important thing" she said afterwards.
She thus becomes only the second winner of the women's Gamper MVP trophy. In 2021/22 against Juventus, it was Jennifer Hermoso who won.
