Sergiño Dest played his first derby between FC Barcelona and Real Madrid. The Casa Blanca got the triumph 1-3 at Barcelona's Camp Nou. It wasn't for sure the dreamed debut for Dest, who has only played four games with his new team: three for the Spanish La Liga and one for the UEFA Champions League. How did he played today?

Dest was far from the worst Barcelona's player, he can stay calm about that. In first place, he's much more a Barcelona's right back than Sergi Roberto. And his coach is a former Barcelona's right back whose style of play was alike hims. In this sense, Dest offer thee possibility of a fine attacking path way over the right lane.

In the first half he counted on having Messi positioned as right winger -the position were Messi has historically shown his best performances- so Dest appearances from the backfield to outnumbered Real Madrid's defense was very important. He showed some little understanding with Messi. And that's good news. Anyway, Ferland Mendy and Sergio Ramos controlled them pretty well.

On the second half Messi repositioned himself at the middle of the field while Pedri appeared on the right side. They didn't get along, although the game was too hard for a pair of teenagers. At the same time, Dest was one of the most dangerous weapons on offence in this second half. Defensively, He wasn't overlapped by Vinicius Jr., who played a bad game.
