Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele sends Juventus to sleep twice with superb pre-season display

Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele gave his manager, Xavi, plenty of food for thought with a virtuoso display against Juventus in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday night.

The two European heavyweights went head-to-head in Dallas, Texas, and all eyes were once again on Barça’s star summer signing Robert Lewandowski.

But it was the much-maligned Dembele who stole the show, netting two superb first-half goals before being subbed off at half-time.

The French winger, who has been linked with a move away from Camp Nou at various points this summer, opened the scoring in the 34th minute with a superb goal after cutting in from the right wing before lashing the ball past Wojciech Szczesny.

OH MY WORD…Ousmane Dembélé!
