Barcelona fans already have high hopes for Riqui Puig and they'll have been further thrilled by his pass in the 16th minute of the team's draw with Huesca.
The 19-year-old played a pass into the penalty area that took four Huesca players out of the action in an instant.
Ousmane Dembele raced onto it and shot, but Roberto Santamaria pulled off an impressive save on his way to a clean sheet and 0-0 draw.

Our coach is technically bankrupt. He should have used Cillisen in goal and his sub were terrible. He has this thing about subbing some players no matter their performance and he finds it difficult to sub old players. Bottom line, he's comfortable with old, muscular and slow players instead of young, agile, hungry and attack minded ones. He went for an away draw as usual and while Prince was the worst player on the pitch, he left him all through and removed 3 of our best performing players thereby killing our attack totally. Jordi Alba had no business playing in this match and for those who keep saying good players no longer come from the junior team, u can comfortably hide your faces in shame. We never needed some players that we signed, someone like Puig would have been able to replace Iniesta if well encouraged. Imagine a beginning of the season 6months or more injury to Messi, with this coach in charge, we will never win the league or Copa de Rey but with a more technically capable coach with winning mentality, we can still win a double if not treble with the quality of players we are endowed with. Overall, I will rate the coach 1/10 for the initial rotation even though they weren't meant to succeed as most fans wanted because today is the first time most of them will be playing together. A wiser coach would have been introducing them little by little as the season progresses so that by today, they would have had enough confidence and cohesion to thrash a team like Huesca. A.K.O Feyi

Riqui Puig is outstanding, he needs to play occasionally in first team and should develop his game so he play well on the pitch, he is a talented player, He has to learn and learn and experience with the best players so as to improve his game. He has Talent and potential to be the best young talent and I love his football style for some reason

Riqui puig proved that he needs to be upgraded in the first team ! He was sprinting , twisting , turning , dribbling , controlling , intercepting making runs and was also providing good balls in the box ! Overall he was fabulous ! He again proved size doesn't matter
