The only 17-year-old Marc Guiu had a formidable debut on Sunday when, shortly after his substitution against Athletic Bilbao, he became the match winner. The Catalan was hailed by his teammates, and here Joao Cancelo had a very special and playful wish for the young striker.
It was not only the joy over the three important points that made the euphoria great and the mood high after the match on Sunday evening against Athletic Club de Bilbao, because it was the young talent, Marc Guiu, who scored the only goal of the match. The 17-year-old striker was therefore in the center after the referee’s final whistle, and here TV cameras caught a funny episode between João Cancelo and Marc Guiu.
With 0-0 on the scoreboard and ten minutes left of regular time, Xavi bet everything to secure the team the three points and reduce the lead to Real Madrid before Saturday’s El Clásico. With players like Robert Lewandowski and Raphinha on the injury list, the offensive opportunities were few, however, and that benefited Marc Guiu. The young striker then also thanked for the trust after only half a minute on the field by scoring for the final result of the match 1-0.
Therefore, there was enormous joy after the match, and all the TV cameras focused on the 17-year-old striker. It was in this connection that the funny episode between João Cancelo and Marc Guiu arose. Here, Cancelo could be heard saying the following to the young striker:
”Now you have to pay for a dinner. You have to give a dinner at McDonalds” said João Cancelo to Marc Guiu with a twinkle in his eye and clearly referring to the striker’s young age.
