MATCHS DU JOUR 3
Sparingly used by Xavi, Franck Kessié was, until now, decisive only in the Champions League (1 goal) and the King's Cup (1 goal, 2 assists). On Sunday, at the end of the 20th day of La Liga, the Ivorian midfielder was decisive for the first time in the Spanish league.
The former AC Milan player came on in the 8th minute to replace the injured Sergio Busquets, and with a subtle pass with the outside of his right foot, he gave the opening goal to Jordi Alba in Barça's 3-0 victory over FC Sevilla. The Catalans are now 8 points ahead of Real Madrid at the top of the La Liga standings.
