Moroccan player Walid Cheddira participated in the Barcelona derby between Espanyol and Barcelona, which ended with Barcelona winning 3-1 in a match held yesterday, Sunday.
Cheddira came on as a substitute in the 62nd minute and earned a 6.5 out of 10 rating from the evaluation site “SofaScore,” reflecting his strong efforts in pressing the opponent and creating offensive opportunities.
Although he didn’t score, Cheddira aimed to make the most of this challenging encounter to showcase his talent, hoping to add a goal to solidify his position, especially against a team of Barcelona’s caliber. Nonetheless, his performance was commendable for a substitute in such a high-stakes match.
It is worth noting that Cheddira joined Espanyol on a one-season loan from Napoli last summer and is using this opportunity to prove himself in La Liga.
