Barcelona star Andreas Christensen secured for himself a piece of club history in the Blaugrana’s most recent outing.
This came by way of his performance against minnows Guadalajara.
Barcelona are of course fresh off kicking the defence of their La Liga crown into gear with a victory on Tuesday night.
After making the trip to Castilla–La Mancha to lock horns with Guadalajara, Hansi Flick’s troops ultimately emerged on the right side of a 2-0 result.
The aforementioned Christensen for his part featured from the off in the fixture, at the heart of Barca’s backline.
And the Dane went on to thoroughly impress on both sides of the ball, even opening the game’s scoring late on with the visitors looking bereft of ideas in the final third.
Such exploits culminated in a Man of the Match rating of 9.4 on the part of the reliable Sofascore.
And as has since been revealed by the statisticians themselves:
‘The Dane’s performance in the Copa del Rey is the highest rated by a Barca centre-back in our entire database.’
