“It was s positive debut, I think it was not easy to play after spending a month and a half without official games,” Lopetegui said at a post-match press conference.

“He had been training with the Primavera team for a month and we played against an important opponent this evening,” the coach continued.

“He has showed he is feeling well during trainings and I think tonight’s game was interesting. He helped us while he was on the pitch.

“He can only improve and guide us with his experience.”
