Joao Cancelo, the 31‑year‑old Portuguese fullback, was named the match’s MVP after helping Barça win 3-0 against Levante. He scored the second goal, assisted by Frenkie de Jong, and consistently pushed forward from the left side despite being right‑footed.
In an interview with Movistar LaLiga, Cancelo praised his first big outing since returning to the club on loan in the winter transfer window, saying he felt the coach would give him a chance.
