Thierry Henry after five months on the sidelines returned to the field for his new club Barcelona and provided the lone goal in a 1-0 win over Dundee United.
The former Arsenal and French international scored off a rebound after coming on as a second half sub.
“I hope it will be the first of many goals,” said Henry. “The important thing was to score and the team to get the result.
Now this should be an intriguing year for all to watch Barcelona and see how manager Frank Rijkaard deals with star players.
Will it be possible for him to get the correct balance of attacking and defending while trying to field a line-up that includes Ronaldinho, Lionel Messi, Samuel Ett’o and Henry? Or is it all just talk.
