Pellistri, who spent the second half of last season on loan in La Liga with Granada, got the scoring under way with a stooping header to convert a ball across the six-yard area from Barcelona's Ronald Araujo. You can watch the goal below, courtesy of the tournament's official X account.
Our Uruguayan also assisted Real Madrid midfielder Federico Valverde for the fourth of La Celeste's five goals, with a low centred pass from the right that the latter swept into the bottom-left corner of the net.
