Ronald Araujo says red card did not spoil Barcelona debut

Ronaldo Araujo says the red card he received for Barcelona against Sevilla on Sunday did not spoil his debut for the Catalan giants.

The Uruguayan made his first appearance for Barca’s first team in the second half when Jean-Clair Todibo was replaced.

However, he lasted only 13 minutes before being shown a straight red card for a challenge on Javier Hernandez.

Yet Araujo says the sending off will not take the gloss off what was a memorable night for him at the Camp Nou.

“I’m really happy, it’s a dream for me, you always dream when you are little of making your debut especially for the first team,” he said.
