A huge thrill
Óscar Melendo started at the RCDE School on Sunday and debuted with the first team
One of the protagonists of the victory of the match against Alavés was Óscar Melendo. The 19 year-old explains to Espanyol TV how was his debut day and his feelings in his first official match in the First Division. "On Saturday I had to call my father for him to bring me my tracksuit; I had nothing", said Melendo.
The midfielder said that it is "a great feeling to train with these players" and added that "it is a great hope to be able to debut with this great club." On his trajectory recalls that he was rejected by the San Gabriel by his height - "at first it conditioned me but after working my legs is no longer a handicap", he said-. "I started la Escuela with great enthusiasm and with the idea of enjoying all the years that I could be. I was lucky that they called me for prebenjamin", he said.
On Sunday he coincided in the field with one of his fellows colleague: Aaron Martín. "Both Aaron and Marc Roca are very good teammates and footballers. They helped me a lot on Super Cup day and on Sunday Aaron helped me a lot and gave me a lot of tranquility".
