Celta Vigo 2-2 Barcelona: 5 Talking Points

#3 Dembele continues his ascendancy

Dembele was one of the better players

Ousmane Dembele was handed a rare chance to strut his stuff on the field and he did impress. He not only put the visitors ahead, but the manner in which he dispatched the chance was a glimpse of his immense potential.

Alcacer laid off for the Frenchman who scythed down a few steps before slotting it past Sergio Alvarez from a tight angle for his first goal in La Liga. The former Dortmund player also maintained a 100% shot accuracy on the night and created two more chances himself.

In an injury-ravaged debut season with the Blaugrana, Dembele has found the going to be really tough, while the manager's restraint in using him regularly has also seen him spend some time on the bench even when fully fit. But in a reasonably good performance last night, he showed that he deserves more time and also made a case to start in the Copa final this Sunday.
