The most expensive purchase of this summer played his first official match over the weekend - David Villa debuted in the Spanish Super Cup match against Sevilla and can already celebrate his first trophy of the season.
Although the striker started the game on the bench and appeared on the field as a substitute in the second half, the player himself was satisfied with his performance.
David Villa actively engaged in the game, took several shots at the opponent's goal, and participated in the attack, during which Lionel Messi scored his third goal of the season.
"It was a great day. Better than I could have imagined. I felt the Camp Nou atmosphere myself. What used to make me nervous now motivates me," said the striker, who until this summer was on the other side of the barricades and played against Barça.
"I couldn't even imagine such a debut. Usually, fans wait and watch until a player does something on the field, and then there are cheers. But I was welcomed with applause as soon as I entered the field. Barca's fans greeted me with ovation during the official presentation and now," shared the footballer.
David Villa admitted that he was nervous when the scoreboard showed 0:0 and he had to warm up next to the field.
"It's normal. You always want to win. You want to contribute to the team's victories. Luckily, we have a great player. Lionel Messi is without a doubt the best in the world. It's a pleasure to watch what that guy does on the field. I'm happy to be his teammate now," smiled the new Barcelona player.
