In the party that confronted to the culés with Valencia the past Saturday, Marc-André achieved to leave his goal to zero by tenth time in the 12 dates contested in the national championship, being the first guardameta in achieving said register. And it is that anybody to these heights attained accumulate so many fences invictas, by what the put culé has reached a new personal record.
