Ferran Torres was one of the goalscorers for Barcelona as they defeated Las Palmas 2-0 on Saturday night.
Once again, the Spanish forward started as a substitute and became one of Hansi Flick’s game-changers coming on from the bench as he entered the pitch at Gran Canaria in the 85th minute and found the net during stoppage time.
The former Manchester City attacker is now the third-highest scorer in the Barcelona squad, despite not being a regular starter, proving to be a brilliant ‘super sub’ for the Blaugrana.
He does not require many minutes to outplay opposing goalkeepers. In fact, six of the eleven goals he has scored this season have come after coming off the bench.
On track for his best season
Ferran Torres is currently enjoying an excellent run of form, and this season could turn out to be the best of his career, at least in terms of statistics.
With his latest strike against Las Palmas, Torres has now scored eleven goals this season from 27 games. Five of these have come in La Liga, four in Copa del Rey, and two in the UEFA Champions League.
