Francisco Trincao: Koeman told me to be myself

New Barcelona signing Francisco Trincao made his debut in Saturday’s 3-1 friendly win over Nastic and was happy to speak about his performance after the game.

The Portugal international showed off his trickery and dribbling ability during the game and was also a little unlucky not to pick up an assist.

Trincao delivered a lovely ball in to Konrad de la Fuente to finish neatly, but the effort was harshly ruled out for offside.

The 21-year-old spoke about his debut and the advice boss Ronald Koeman offered him before he took to the pitch for the second half.
