Ferran Torres was one of the great figures in Barça's triumph in Dortmund. The striker scored twice in 14 minutes to give the Catalans the victory
Ferran Torres is in great form and at Signal Iduna Park he was the hero. The 'Shark' stepped up against Borussia Dortmund and, in a display of character and how to face difficulties, gave FC Barcelona the three points with a spectacular double that catapulted them to second place in the table and practically ensured qualification for the Champions League round of 16.
The player from Foios came onto the pitch in a hostile environment, with the score tied at 1 and replacing Robert Lewandowski, who has been a guarantee of goals this season. Far from being intimidated, the Barça '7' took over from the Pole and, just 4 minutes after entering the field, put the team ahead by taking advantage of a rebound from the goalkeeper after a shot from Fermín López.
Ferran increased his scoring streak
Later, when the match was beginning to draw and the Germans had equalised on the scoreboard, Torres controlled a spectacular assist from Lamine Yamal and put his shot into the side netting of Kobel's goal and sealed the match in favour of the Catalans.
A goal that, in addition to giving Barça the victory, extends his scoring streak to three consecutive games celebrating at least one goal, all three away from home. He also found the net against Mallorca and Betis, adding 5 goals in 14 games played this season. A super substitute for Hansi Flick's super team, who could not help but praise his player at the end of the match.
"When there is a difficult situation, he is someone who reacts very well. He has his own timing. Today he scored a goal and in general he is doing very well. He has a very positive mentality and, after his injury, he has become very important for the team again. We have worked a lot with him. He is an important player," concluded the coach, making it clear that Ferran is beginning to become a key piece of his project.
