Barcelona star João Cancelo has this evening moved to show his support for teammate João Félix.
This comes after the Portuguese found the net in timely fashion, during Barca’s La Liga meeting with Real Betis.
Xavi’s troops are fresh off an altogether morale-boosting result, which saw them bring to an end the unbeaten home streak of Manuel Pellegrini’s Betis courtesy of a 4-2 triumph.
Félix, meanwhile, proved decisive, emerging from the bench to put Barca back in front courtesy of a gorgeous right-footed finish with 90 minutes on the clock.
Amid what has proven a tumultuous recent stretch for the on-loan Atlético Madrid man in Catalunya, the goal no doubt came as a major source of relief.
And, as alluded to above, one individual who was quick to throw his backing behind Félix on the back of the full-time whistle at the Estadio Benito Villamarín comes in the form of compatriot João Cancelo.
Himself on loan at Barcelona for the duration of the term, full-back Cancelo took to social media a short time ago, to unveil a heartfelt message:
“Let’s go, my boy Joao Felix… Let them talk! Nothing beats talent.”
