Supporters of Spanish giants Barcelona have taken to social media in numbers on Sunday evening, to lavish praise on a long-criticised member of the club’s squad.
Xavi Hernandez’s troops, of course, are currently locked in action.
Amid efforts to reestablish their eight-point advantage atop the La Liga table, the Blaugrana have welcomed relegation-battling Cadiz to the Camp Nou.
And, as things stand in Catalunya, all three points is precisely what Barca are on track for.
This comes owing to a quickfire pair of goals on the part of Sergi Roberto and Robert Lewandowski, shortly before the interval.

As alluded to above, though, amid the ongoing action on Sunday evening, it is not their side’s goalscorers who have been singled out for the most widespread adulation on the part of the Blaugrana faithful.
The player in question? Ferran Torres.
Taking to social media in their droves, Barca’s supporters have hailed wide-man Torres for his influence against Cadiz, with just some of the highlights from across Twitter showcased below:

That goal was made by Ferran Torres.
His best half of football all season. Absolutely brilliant.

75’| Ferran Torres is currently the best player on the pitch right now. I’m so happy for him. His first start since November, & he’s been FIRE.
Hopefully he can keep this performance consistent because we really need this from him.#BARCAD #BarcaCadiz pic.twitter.com/1ucrzW1DL4— Mohammed Ador (@m_ador11) February 19, 2023
