One Barcelona star completed 98% of his passes vs Brest | OneFootball

A head-turning statistic, highlighting the excellence of one member of the midfield setup at Barcelona in the club’s meeting with Stade Brestois, has come to the fore online.

Barca of course marked their return to action last night, welcoming Ligue 1 outfit Brest to Catalunya’s capital for a Champions League clash.

When all was said and done, the Blaugrana emerged dominant victors, by three goals to nil.

A whole host of members of Hansi Flick’s squad enjoyed starring displays on the evening, with the likes of Robert Lewandowski, Pedri and Pau Cubarsí singled out for widespread praise post-match.

It was another, though, who conjured up perhaps the standout statistic of the clash.

Afforded his latest starting berth in the middle of the park, Marc Casadó continued to prove himself a reliable source of excellence on both sides of the ball.

So much so that, in possession, the 21-year-old completed all but two of his 98 passes against Brest, for a pass completion percentage of 98%.
