Impact Garcia also committed six fouls and did the dirty work to beat the visitors at their own game.

MAY 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores opener in win Garcia scored one goal from one shot in 76 minutes of Thursday's 3-2 win over Cadiz.

Impact Garcia has scored twice in the last three matches and has offered a nice contribution after poor play had him out of the lineup or getting his starts cut far too short.

APRIL 22, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Garcia was brought on for Iker Muniain and rotated into the front line as Asier Villalibre picked up another injury.

Impact Just before the first half was called, Garcia managed to score his side's only goal with the assist from Iker Muniain in the 43rd minute. The forward has been on a five game scoring drought, and it remains to be seen if he will score again in the next match against Celta Viga.

APRIL 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Logs assist in win Garcia provided one assist in 25 minutes of Sunday's 2-1 win over Elche.

Impact Garcia set up Asier Villalibre's well-taken finish while coming on in relief of Oihan Sancet. Recently, Garcia has come off the bench in three straight appearances but looked better in Sunday's win.

APRIL 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in loss Garcia scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) during Monday's 3-2 loss to Mallorca.

Impact Garcia has stepped up his game enough to start three straight matches and in the Cup, as he's scored in consecutive matches across all competitions. It shouldn't be surprising to see him keep his place in the derby against Real Sociedad, which have kept four straight clean sheets.

FEBRUARY 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Monday Garcia (undisclosed) will feature in the starting XI versus Mallorca on Monday.

Impact Garcia has started each of the club's previous two contests and has generated one assist, three shots (zero on target) and three crosses (zero accurate) in his last three outings. WIth the forward back on the pitch, he should be a decent fantasy target moving forward.

FEBRUARY 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Logs assist, leaves with knock Garcia logged one assist from three chances created and left with a knock after 64 minutes of Monday's 2-1 win over Espanyol.

Impact Garcia set up Oihan Sancet to beat the offside trap and equalize just five minutes into the contest, before leaving later with what appeared to be a pulled hamstring. Following what was one of his better performances of the season, Garcia will hope not to be out for long. More is surely to be shared about Garcia's status ahead of Thursday's Copa del Rey semifinal against Valencia.

FEBRUARY 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Returns in cup match Garcia (illness) played 78 minutes of Thursday's Copa del Rey victory against Atletico Mancha Real.

Impact Garcia missed last weekend's victory against Osasuna while isolating with COVID-19, but he has recovered and will likely start once again versus Alaves on Sunday.

JANUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Garcia returned to training Wednesday after testing negative for COVID-19, just ahead of Thursday's Copa del Rey trip to Atletico Mancha Real.

Impact Garcia only missed one match due to his positive test but could easily have lost his place in the lineup after Oihan Sancet scored a hat trick in Monday's win over Osasuna. It's some unfortunate timing personally for Garcia, but he had only scored once in his previous 10 appearances and a change was probably on the horizon already.

JANUARY 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Tests positive for COVID-19 Garcia has tested positive for COVID-19, Athletic announced Thursday.

Impact Garcia will miss at least a week while in isolation, including Monday's clash against Osasuna. Oihan Sancet could fill in for him in the front two for the game.

DECEMBER 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off bench in loss Garcia put one shot off target in 27 minutes off the bench during Wednesday's 2-1 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Garcia replaced Oihan Sancet in the second half but failed to get involved in the contest. This may not help his case if he wishes to earn more minutes, especially after Sancet scored in the first half and looked much more dangerous in Wednesday's game. Up next is a trip to Osasuna, which have conceded 22 goals in 17 matches this season.

DECEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes two shots in loss Garcia took two shots (one on goal) and created one chance during Wednesday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Garcia has scored just once in his last six matches (four starts). While he's shown some progress with one goal from two shots on target over his last two appearances, there's still more to be done if Garcia can hold reliable fantasy relevance. Up next is a trip to Getafe, which are tied for the fourth-most goals conceded to forwards in La Liga.

DECEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in draw Garcia scored one goal from three shots (one on goal) and created two chances during Friday's 2-2 draw with Granada.

Impact Garcia's playing time and performances have been a little messy lately, but that didn't stop him from capitalizing off a defensive error to score the game's first goal. He also attempted a volley from distance that nearly caught goalkeeper Luis Maximiano off his line, but he connected with the crossbar instead of the back of the net. Over the last five games, Garcia's goal from Friday accounts for one of just four goals scored. With this in mind, Garcia has proven how important he becomes when he plays aggressively. Building on these efforts will become important during a tough trip to Real Madrid.

NOVEMBER 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Creates one chance in draw Garcia created one chance in 55 minutes of Friday's scoreless draw with Levante.

Impact Garcia has alternated starts over the last five matches despite relatively long windows between most games. Whether this is a bid to add tactical variety or to keep everyone fresh, it doesn't help the value of Garcia as someone who has yet to play a full 90 this season. Up next is a visit from Granada, which are tied for the third-most goals conceded in La Liga with 20 let by in 14 matches.

NOVEMBER 22, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes four shots in draw Garcia logged four shots (two on goal) during 66 minutes of Sunday's 1-1 draw with Real Sociedad.

Impact Garcia tied his season-high for shots taken in a single match but wasn't able to get past that point and spent much of the game absorbing the pressure of a physical derby contest. He's still scored twice in his last three starts and will next face Cadiz, which have conceded the second-most goals in La Liga.

NOVEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Scores again in win Garcia scored one goal on his only shot during Saturday's 2-1 win over Villarreal.

Impact Garcia has scored in two straight league games over the last month after failing to score in his first six appearances of the season. If he can continue to score goals without taking a high number of shots, look to Garcia as a reliable alternate to some of the bigger names available. Up next is a trip to Espanyol, which have conceded just 10 goals in 10 games.

OCTOBER 25, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Misses penalty, scores later Garcia scored a goal while taking two shots (both on goal) and crossing once inaccurately during Friday's 1-0 win over Deportivo Alaves.

Gets another start Garcia created one chance in 63 minutes of Saturday's scoreless draw with Atletico Madrid.

Impact Garcia remains scoreless over his last eight appearances dating back to last season but he's now recorded starts in consecutive matches. He's picked a good time to start finding his stride, as Rayo Vallecano and Deportivo Alaves will represent two favorable matchups among his next three opponents, if he's still in the lineup.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Returns in draw Garcia logged 23 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 1-1 draw with Barcelona.

Impact Garcia was suspended for the first match of this season as a holdover from the previous campaign, but is now back and available. Heading into the next match against Celta Vigo, Garcia could be in line for his first start as he looks to recover his goalscoring form after a down season.

AUGUST 25, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Suspended for two matches Garcia will be suspended for Sunday's trip to Elche and for the first game of next season after getting sent off in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Real Madrid.

Impact Garcia has had a rough season with just five goals scored from 21 starts after scoring 15 in 33 starts in the previous campaign. He'll need to prove himself in the offseason to regain a starting role going forward.
