Jardí completed all 90 minutes of the match, making him the only attacker Ibai Gómez kept on the pitch for the entire game—clear evidence of how indispensable he has become to this team. The Reus native set up Pau Sans for the academy graduate to score the third with a through ball that wrong-footed the entire Teruel defense, while his left foot produced the ball that ultimately sealed the Aragonese clash, delivering the match’s fourth goal.
In addition, the winger attempted four shots and played two key passes, completed 32 passes—16 of them in the final third—and made seven progressive carries. This shows that he is Real Zaragoza’s biggest source of danger and that much of the team’s promotion hopes rest on his quality.
SECOND TEAM OF THE WEEK SELECTION
This is the second time Jardí has been named in the Team of the Week, having first made the lineup on Matchday 3 after his outstanding performance against Juventud Torremolinos, when he provided two assists, scored a goal and forced the opposition into an own goal.
However, the player with the most appearances is Diego González, with three selections in the six matchdays played so far. This is another clear example of how fundamental the defender is to the team in every respect.
