Ansu Fati’s new record when Barcelona Defeated Levante

DBasia.news –  Ansu Fati became the youngest player to score two goals in La Liga, Monday (3/2) AM. Ansu’s two goals came from Lionel Messi’s two brilliant assists to give Barcelona a 2-1 win over Levante.

Two goals in the match between Barcelona vs Levante has made Ansu Fati the youngest brace in LaLiga history. That day, the Guinea Bissau player was only 17 years 94 days old. He is 21 days younger than the old record holder, Juan Miguel Jimenez “Juanmi”.

Juanmi’s record as LaLiga’s youngest brace scorer has lasted a decade. He carved the record on September 12, 2010. At that time, Malaga won 5-3 at home to Real Zaragoza. Juanmi’s two goals were created in the 7th and 29th. Previously, in the 2nd minute, he made assists for the opening goal made by Fernando.

At that time, Juanmi broke Francesc Calvet’s record of 60 years. Like Ansu Fati, Calvet is a Barcelona player. In 1940, Calvet scored a brace at the age of 17 years and 191 days.

Compared to the previous record holder, Ansu Fati has one special thing. Two goals were made 100 seconds later. Both goals were derived from the bait of the superstar, Lionel Messi.

After the match, Fati was unable to say much about the record for LaLiga’s youngest brace. He only thanked his team-mates in Barcelona who made him score two goals against Levante.

“I’ve just been told about it and can’t comment on anything, I just have to continue to grow and take advantage of every opportunity given to me,” Ansu Fati said after the Barcelona vs Levante match as quoted by Diario Sport.

Furthermore, Ansu Fati revealed, “My team-mates made things easier for me. I thank them because it’s not easy for a kid to come and play well. “
