The Cape Verde right winger, Telmo Arcanjo, got the ball on the right side, controlling it deftly and at his touch, nobody in the stadium needed the commentary to tell them he was quick.
In a blitz of a second, he was past Cucurella before Cucurella had properly set himself.
There wasn't any trick to what he did other than sheer power to bypass the Chelsea man's defences, and suddenly he was at the byline with the ball and options.
He didn't overthink it, sending a cross over on his first step into the box.
The Spanish players were frantic now.
They positioned themselves well, looking to intercept any dangerous ball, but others had different plans.
Cape Verde's Ieltins Camões was six foot two, and he attacked the ball the way tall strikers attack crosses.
He had gotten everything right, but Rodri got across him at the last second.
He was suddenly under pressure and in the next moment, the ball deflected off the contact and spilt to the edge of the box.
Pedri was there.
