But Dembele’s night ended in disappointment, when he was given his marching order in the final minute, for protesting a red card that had been shown to teammate Ronald Araujo, who was making his debut.
Dembele had already been shown a yellow card, when Lahoz branded a straight red to leave him facing a ban of at least two games.
The Spanish Football Federation has now upheld a two-game ban, meaning that Dembele will miss the league matches against Eibar and Real Madrid, subject to any appeal from the Catalans.
