A minute and five seconds. That was how long Barcelona's Arturo Vidal needed on Saturday to fire his side in front in an encounter with Mallorca.
Having had the season suspended in March as a result of the novel coronavirus, many La Liga fans yearned for the campaign's restoration. On Friday, that was actualized, commencing with Valencia's 1-1 draw with Granada.
On Saturday, the high tempo nature of the league emerged, with Los Blaugrana making no room for niceties right from the onset. Less than a minute and a half into the first 45 minutes of the encounter with Mallorca, Quique Setien's men took charge of affairs to spark aurosal within their fan base.
The incident starred Frenkie De Jong, Jordi Alba and midfield maestro Arturo Vidal from build up to the end. The latter simply ended up arriving late to score his seventh league goal from Alba's cross.
Watch the goal below:
BARCELONA WASTE NO TIME!
