Champions League: Superb performance by Hadj Moussa against Barcelona today! (video)

After sulking and missing the last league match, Anis Hadj Moussa returned today in the Champions League against Barça.

The discontent is over following his failed transfer this summer, the Algerian right winger, who apologized to his teammates, was once again a key player in Giovanni Van Bronckhorst's attack for a tricky first away match at Camp Nou.

Unbeaten at the start of the season, the Blaugrana led by Hansi Flick, comfortably at the top of La Liga, shone logically during their first European night, with goals from Yamal, Raphinha, and Gabriel Jesus.

However, in the first half, Hadj Moussa, very comfortable technically, attempted several plays and troubled the Catalans multiple times with his runs and shooting attempts, but he was thwarted each time at the last moment.

There was even a highly disputed play in the penalty area where a penalty should have been awarded in his favor. After breaking past Olmo, he surged into the box when Cancelo and Cubarsi blocked his path.

Later, on another run, he left Cubarsi behind with a quick footwork, before his angled shot was deflected by Joan Garcia. The final score was 5-1 in favor of Barça, but Hadj Moussa made a solid return to competition.
