The 15-year-old replaced Marc Guiu on the pitch and Yamal in the record books by 10 days after debuting for the reserve side at the grand old age of 15 years and 287 days.
Fernandez has already caught the eye of Xavi and has been called up to first-team training this season despite his tender years.
The teenager is highly regarded as one of the brightest talents in the academny right now and it will certainly be worth keeping an eye on his progress.
