FC Barcelona 17-year-old promising defender Pau Kubarsi suffered a terrible injury. Fortunately, Kubarsi recovered quickly and delivered a healthy update. Barcelona released a photo of Kubarsi with the phrase 'Everything is for Barca.

Barcelona defeated Zvezda 5-2 in the fourth round of the UEFA Champions League League phase of the 2024-2025 season at the Rajkomitics Stadium in Belgrade, Serbia on the 7th (Korea time).

A dangerous scene came out in the 18th minute of the second half. Barcelona center back Kubarsi's face was caught in the opponent's soccer shoes during defense. There was a bleed on Kubarsi's face.




British broadcaster BBC reported 'Kubarthy had to sew 10 needles to seal the wound on his face. Director Han Ji-flick said he was fine.

BBC said 'Kubarthy was defending a 67th minute corner with a header when he was struck by Uros Spahic's stud. Debuting at the age of 16, Kubarthy had to receive first aid on the field due to a cut in his face. Barcelona later posted a picture of a smiling Cuban city on its official social media account.

British media 'Metro' suffered a terrible cut to the face after Cuban was kicked in the head. Kubarsi bravely cleared the ball with a header, but it hit Spaich's foot. Despite the hurt, Kubarthy appeared positive. According to Spanish media, he believes he may play in Sunday's game and there are no major concerns'




Metro says 'Kubarsi is young but one of the top prospects in world football. He has established his position in the starting lineup even more this seasonhighly commended '

Meanwhile, South Korean player Seol Young-woo of Zbadzda recorded his first assist in the Champions League on the day.

Zvezda, who gave up the first run to defender Inigo Martinez in the 13th minute of the first half, returned the game to square one with Silas' equalizer in the 27th minute of the first half. However, starting with Robert Lewandowski's goal in the 43rd minute of the first half, he lost consecutive points to Lewandowski in the 8th minute of the second half, Hafinya in the 10th minute of the second half, and Fermin López in the 31st minute of the second half. With the game on the edge, Milson, who was assisted by Seol Young-woo in the 39th minute of the second half, scored a comeback goal.




In the second half, Zvezda's left defense, opposite Seol Young-woo, collapsed helplessly due to Barcelona fullback Jules Kounde's overlap. Seol Young-woo knelt down in despair in the last López scoring scene. Statistics site Footmob gave Seol a low rating of 5.5 points.

Starting with the Young Boys match (5-0 wins) last month, Barcelona has scored 26 goals, more than four goals per game, including Sevilla (5-1 wins), Munich (4-1 wins), Real Madrid (4-0 wins), Espanyol (3-1 wins), and Zvezda (5-2 wins).

Barcelona, which has a dominant lead in La Liga, jumped to sixth place with 3 wins, 1 loss and 9 points against Zvezda. Veteran Lewandowski and Hafinya have scored five goals side by side to lead the scoring with Harry Kane (Munich) and Victor Jockeres (Sporting).

Zvezda is ranked 35th out of 36 teams after losing all four games amid evaluation of being the weakest.
