Joao Felix was brilliant once again for Atletico Madrid vs MLS All-Stars Joao Felix has a lot to live up to as the fifth most expensive player in football history.
The Portugal forward, just 19 years old, completed a £113 million move from Benfica to Atletico Madrid at the start of July.
But, after being forced off with an injury just 28 minutes into his debut for the La Liga club, Felix has bounced back to show why he warranted such an eye-watering fee.
The youngster was sublime in Atleti’s 7-3 mauling of Real Madrid in the International Champions Cup, scoring once and providing two assists.
And Felix impressed once again as Diego Simeone’s side defeated MLS All-Stars 3-0 in Orlando
The MLS All-Stars side included Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Wayne Rooney and Bastian Schweinsteiger, but Felix was the star of the show.
He scored a wonderful goal from outside the area to make it 2-0.
Then, Felix showed off his playmaking abilities with an inch-perfect pass that found Diego Costa, who added a third.
Felix is trying to follow in the footsteps of compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo, who became a legend in Spain with Real Madrid.
