Xavi and Montjuic, ‘frozen’ by the unusual start of the Barça team.
It’s impossible to start a game worse. Historic goal by Samu Omorodion: Barcelona scored from the center and Deportivo Alavés scored after 17 seconds to take the lead on the scoreboard. The Albiazul team regained the ball after stealing Gundogan and ran towards Marc-André ter Stegen’s goal with all judgment. Samu Omorodion took advantage of Javi López’s cross at the near post and beat the German goalkeeper at will.
It was Samu Omorodion’s third goal wearing the Deportivo Alavés shirt. It took the Melilla forward less than twenty seconds to score the first goal of the match.
As reported by the renowned Twitter account @2010MisterChip, in the space of 37 days (and in matches immediately preceding the FIFA date), Barcelona has conceded the first two goals in its history in La Liga matches of which footage exists: Bryan Zaragoza (Granada) at 17 seconds. Samu Omorodion (Alavés) at 18 seconds. In both cases it was Barcelona who kicked off, which adds even more value to both brands.
