Marc Casadó was one of the 'infamous' protagonists of the draw in Balaídos. The '17' was sent off for a second yellow card and triggered Celta's comeback

Calendar of FC Barcelona

Marc Casadó experienced his first 'black night' in the first team of FC Barcelona. The midfielder, who had been one of the most outstanding players of the season, was sent off for the first time in his career and started Celta's comeback, which overcame goals from Raphinha and Robert Lewandowski to equalise the final score at 2-2.

The '17' was very demanding from the first minutes, multiplying himself in the midfield to try to balance without sparing efforts. However, he was not fine when it came to distributing the ball and in the final minutes, the intensity of his game played a trick on him.

The youth player saw his first yellow card at 75' after grabbing Alfon to prevent a counterattack, and seven minutes later, at 82', he did the same to Ilaix Moriba, who broke through from the second line overcoming the Barça defence. The youth player saw his second yellow card and was forced to leave the Balaídos pitch, only to see the Vigo side draw level at 84' and 86'.

A sensitive loss for Hansi Flick

Due to his first red card, Casadó will not be available to Hansi Fick in next Saturday's match against Las Palmas, causing a sensitive loss for the Blaugrana team. The player from Sant Pere de Vilamajo had become an essential piece for the German coach, who will have to introduce some variation in the midfield in the duel against the Canaries.

In principle, Frenkie de Jong would be in charge of replacing Marc in the centre of the field, although Eric García could be Flick's 'hidden' choice in the starting eleven. In any case, the Catalans will almost certainly feel the absence of the youth player in the team.
