Luis de la Fuente's call for the international commitments for the month of November initially included four culés: Lamine, Pedri, Olmo and Casadó. An injury to the syndesmosis in his right ankle caused Yamal to miss the event. On the other hand, Pau Torres, an Aston Villa footballer named with the Spanish National Team, left the camp on the second day due to muscle discomfort, which made Cubarsí take his place. Thus, with the respective changes, the same number of culés was maintained.
Olmo, Casadó and Pedri, present against Denmark
The first of the Nations League commitments for Spain was against Denmark. It took place last Friday at the Parken Stadion in Copenhagen and the match ended 1-2 in favor of 'La Roja'. The team led by Luis de la Fuente made sure to go as seeded to the knockout phase.
For this match, Dani Olmo started as a starter, while his Barça teammates waited on the bench. The Egarense played 70 minutes and assisted Ayoze Pérez for the second goal. He was later replaced by Nico Williams. However, in the same change window, Marc Casadó entered the field in place of Zubimendi. In the 80th minute, Pedri was the last entry for Spain.
Cubarsí, Casadó and Pedri, starters against Switzerland
The Spanish National Team faced the match against Switzerland knowing that nothing was at stake. Thus, the coach opted for several rotations. Regarding Barça, Cubarsí, Casadó and Pedri were starters, while Olmo stayed on the bench. The match, played in the native Tenerife of the '8' culé, ended with a tight 3-2 for 'La Roja', who closed the group stage undefeated.
It was not an easy match for Pedri, who missed a penalty and received a painful stomp on his knee, but none of the actions had major consequences. On the other hand, Cubarsí had a good game and Casadó shone in his debut as a starter. While the Canarian was replaced in the 79th minute by Pablo Barrios, the two Catalans played the entire game.
90 minutes on average for each culé
In this way, the playing times have remained quite even in the case of the FC Barcelona footballers. Marc Casadó was the one who played the most minutes, with a total of 110, while Olmo was the one who played the least, with 70. In the middle are Cubarsí and Pedri, who have played the equivalent of a full game.
