FC Barcelona started the match against Athletic Bilbao well and took the lead in the semi-final of the Spanish Super Cup in the 16th minute. The Catalans carried out a neat attack on the left side of the pitch, Alejandro Balde passed into the penalty area and Gavi finished running in front of the goal. A moment later he was able to start celebrating eloquently.
Gavi's meaningful celebration. He dedicated a goal in the match between Athletic Bilbao and FC Barcelona to him
After scoring the goal, Gavi immediately ran to the corner of the pitch, where he did not hide his great joy. The midfielder waved his arms, posed towards the fans and hugged and high-fived his teammates. “The young player celebrated the goal with fury,” Mundo Deportivo writes about the situation. The same source also noted that Gavi made another telling gesture.
The Spanish representative finished everything by tapping his finger on his wrist, as if pointing at a watch. What did this reaction mean? “MD” reminded that Dani Olmo, his teammate and national teammate, is very often happy after goals, and is currently in a very difficult situation.
Olmo and Pau Victor could not be registered by Barcelona for the LaLiga competition in recent days, and now the Higher Sports Council has taken a preventive measure against them and allowed them to play. This happened shortly before the start of the match against Athletic, and both players were not on the bench for the hit match.
“He dedicated the goal to Olmo, repeating the gesture his teammate usually makes by tapping the clock with his finger,” emphasized “MD” after Gavi's goal. The goal was also considered “special” and Barcelona's entire action was considered an “exciting game”. The 20-year-old Spaniard scored his eighth goal for Barcelona.
