Facundo Pellistri made a sensational appearance for Granada in La Liga against Barcelona at the Olimpico stadium, MySportDab reports

Pellistri, 22, scored and assisted as Granada nearly ran out with an unlikely La Liga victory over Barcelona at Barcelona’s make-shift ground Estadi Olimpico.

Lamine Yamal raced Barcelona into the lead in the 14th minute before clutch Pellistri helped Granada restore parity, providing the assist that saw Sanchez score the equaliser in the 43rd minute.

Pellistri was on target at the hour mark, scoring to give Granada a shock lead but Robert Lewandowski scored the equaliser a few minutes later.  Miquel would put Granada in the lead again with the away side’s third goal before Lamine Yamal bagged his brace and equalised again in the 80th minute.

The Man United loanee seems to have gotten over his perilous Old Trafford stint to get back to gears with Granada in La Liga. Save his goal and assist, Pellistri was a thorn in Barcelona’s flesh throughout the game.
