Real Madrid footballing sensation, Arda Guler, stole the spotlights as he finally made his debut, LCSoccerHub Reports.
The promising young talent unleashed his immense talent and skills as Los Blancos battled Arandina in Copa Del Rey on Saturday, January 6.
The former Fenerbahce attacking sensation made a big difference as Real Madrid saw off Arandina to book a place in the next round of the competition.
Guler did not bag an assist or a goal in the four-goal thriller but was pretty top of his game throughout his 59 minutes shift for the Carlo Ancelotti side.
He posed continuous threat to Arandina and gave Real Madrid attack a huge leverage. His creativity and beautiful legwork also stole the spotlight, including a powerful free-kick that crichoted against woodwork.
Guler’s sparkling debut has thrown social media into a frenzy with Real Madrid fans comparing the youngster to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in their prime.
A fan wrote, “Arda Guler is a genius.”
Another fan added, “Another king of football is born.”
Another fan said, “Guler could be compared to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. His free-kick is certainly in the class of the footballing icon’s”
Real Madrid eased to a 3-1 win after a barren first half draw thanks to a Brahima Diaz’s brace and Joselu’s penalty goal.
Arda Guler will be hoping to continue on his prolific start to life following his scintillating competitive debut for the Los Blancos.
He joined the club for £15m from Fenerbahce on a six-year contract but the long-awaited was delayed due to niggling injuries.
