[Sport] Fermín looks for his escape route

[Blexfraptor]

After having few minutes in the Spanish Super Cup, the midfielder wants to make a difference again in the Copa del Rey
Xavi Hernández had several doubts when considering the two games that the Blaugranas played in the Spanish Super Cup. The substitution of Pedri against Osasuna, who received the medical discharge before the match, left a free place in a midfield where both Frenkie De Jong and Gündogan were guaranteed to be present. Fermín Lopez, after his great performance against UD Barbastro, was the favorite to replace him as interior. However, Sergi Roberto ended up playing.
The campillero, who had just scored a goal at the Municipal de los Deportes de Barbastro and was one of the best players in that round of 32 match of the Copa del Rey (2-3), expected a participation that was practically nil.
Against the Navarrese team he did not even have minutes and in the final against Real Madrid he entered with the result seen as a sentence. The midfielder's frustration, both due to the defeat and the impossibility of helping the team to turn the situation around, was reflected in each of the actions in which he intervened. The Andalusian had the occasional scuffle with certain players from the white team.
A competition to shine again
After the storm, calm always comes and Fermín López will have the opportunity against Unionistas de Salamanca to show that, at least, he deserved more minutes in the Spanish Super Cup. Pedri's return makes his presence in the starting eleven more complicated. Now, this Copa del Rey could be his escape route to continue adding minutes, because the player from Egarense is forced to make rotations given the great load of minutes that certain players accumulate.
Sergi Roberto has already had the opportunity to take on a more important role as a result of this last competition, but now it is Fermín's turn to present himself again as an alternative that, surprisingly, had not been taken into account in recent years. matches.
