In the Spanish Copa del Rey quarter-final, Barcelona travelled away to face Albacete, where one of the Catalan players achieved a notable feat this season.
Details: According to Opta, Marcus Rashford has become just the third La Liga player this season to reach double figures in both goals and assists. Rashford now has 10 goals and 10 assists to his name. Previously, only Lamine Yamal (14 goals and 12 assists) and Fermín López (10 goals and 11 assists) had managed this achievement.
Notably, for the first time in his 135 appearances for Blaugrana across all competitions, Yamal has scored in four consecutive matches. The forward has found the net four times in his last four games, underlining his sensational form and his status as an indispensable attacking leader.
Reminder: Wojciech Szczęsny ended his career in the summer of 2024, but Barcelona were in need of a goalkeeper and he ultimately agreed to sign a contract. At present, he is fully satisfied.
