Watch: Barcelona Star Pedri's Long-Range Screamer vs Sevilla
LaLiga: Pedri scored a late winner during Barcelona's 1-0 win against Sevilla at the Camp Nou.
Barcelona star Pedri was in fine form on Monday, scoring a crucial match-winner against Sevilla in a 1-0 win at the Camp Nou. The youngster's late goal proved to be crucial as the Catalan outfit maintained their late surge for the LaLiga title. In the 72nd-minute, the 19-year-old received a pass from Ousmane Dembele and then feigned shooting twice on his way towards the box, finally letting out a screamer which beat Sevilla keeper Bounou to find the bottom left corner of the goal.
