In the derby of Barcelona's reserve teams, FC Barcelona defeated RCD Espanyol 3–1, in a match held at the Johan Cruyff Stadium, where attention was also focused on the stands.
Head coach Hans Flick, along with stars like Ronald Araújo and Lamine Yamal, followed the challenge closely, giving the match special attention from the first team.
Meanwhile, young Egyptian striker Hamza Abdelkarim was absent from the field due to injury, watching the match from the stands. Despite his absence, Barcelona's reserve team secured a comfortable 3–1 victory.
Abdelkarim made his official debut with the reserve team in a Primera Federación match against SD Huesca, where he immediately made his mark by winning and converting a penalty, although Barça did not achieve victory in that match.
Although he has since made a few more appearances, he has yet to replicate the impact of his debut. The striker also started in the Copa del Rey Juvenil semi-final in Lugo, and before his latest injury, he had also made a 30-minute substitute appearance in the defeat to Damm on March 21.
Now, the young talent remains in the recovery phase, while Barcelona's staff is closely monitoring his return to the field. /GazetaExpress/
