Impact Nunes made his return to the starting XI, after being out or on the bench in the previous six matches. The attacking midfielder proved to be effective as he set up Micah Hamilton in the 19th minute to record his first assist of the Champions League.

Matheus Nunes is said to be an excellent dribbler, which is a rare quality in a defensive midfielder. His excellent dribbling quality means that he can also be played in that box to box role alongside Rodri, specially in matches where Pep needs to play 2 pivots.
