Barcelona Atletic coach Albert Sanchez says he hopes that Dani Rodriguez manages to see some first-team minutes this season.

Sanchez was asked about the teenager after the game and talked up the young winger.
“I hope Dani gets the chance, that’s what we’re here for. He’s a Barça-style winger. He has a lot of potential,” he told reporters.
Rodriguez is back in action after a spell on the sidelines through injury and he’s clearly thrilled to be back in action.
“It’s been a tough few months, with a lot of work. I’ve tried to come back in the best possible way to be able to help the team. I’m very happy,” he said.
“We’re working very well. It’s a shame that it ended 2-2 because the team fought until the end. I’m leaving with very good feelings and we’re going to keep fighting.”
Hansi Flick has been more than willing to trust in youth this season at Barcelona which will surely give Rodriguez plenty of encouragement following his return from injury.
