"We wanted to win, but we lacked competition rhythm", is what the Spanish team's player had said post-match

Pablo Torre wore the prestigious Barça shirt for the first time on Wednesday in the team's first preseason match. The Cantabrian showed glimpses of the potential he has in the draw against Olot (1-1), even earning words of praise from his coach, Xavi Hernandez, at the end of the match. The midfielder from Cantabria played with an open and vertical style, showing a very good adaptation to the playing style of the Spanish side.

One of the team's exciting new talents, Torre was very happy for his debut with Barça but regretted that it did not come in a winning cause. However, he also played down the importance of the result: "We wanted to win, but we lacked competitive rhythm, something to be expected at this stage of the season because we have had very few training sessions until now".

Pablo Torre felt comfortable on the pitch of the Municipal de Olot, but he was convinced that he and the rest of the team will improve their performance before the start of the season. "We still have a lot of the preseason left to improve", he has said. The young Barça midfielder showed a special understanding with Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, to whom he served an assist in the early stages of the match that the Gabonese striker failed to convert.
