Dani Olmo celebrated his delayed Barcelona debut with a goal to seal a 2-1 comeback victory at Rayo Vallecano in La Liga on Tuesday. The Spain playmaker's 82nd-minute strike helped Barcelona claim their third win from three matches under new coach Hansi Flick at the start of the season. Barca were unable to register Olmo with La Liga after signing him from RB Leipzig until earlier in the day and he made an instant impact after being brought on at Rayo's Vallecas stadium.
Unai Lopez sent Rayo ahead against a flat Barca in the first half but Olmo came on at the break and energised the Catalans, who levelled through Pedri before the new arrival struck the winner.
"(I've been waiting to play) since I arrived, looking forward to the first game, the debut, and what better way (to mark it)," Olmo told DAZN.
"I was really looking forward to it, I felt physically ready to play, and it finally happened today.
"I am very happy to have made my debut and helped the team."
