Hansi Flick praised Lamine Yamal after the teenager finally found the back of the net again, saying:
“I think everyone has been waiting for Lamine Yamal’s goal, and it’s good for him. It should give him confidence, and I think the goal came at the right time. I’m also happy for him because he scored again, and that’s good.”
The 17-year-old sensation delivered one of the finest goals in this season’s Champions League with a brilliant left-footed curler.
Yamal now boasts 12 goals and 17 assists for Barcelona this season—incredible numbers for a player of his age.
With his latest performance, he has become the youngest player ever to score and assist in a single Champions League game, further cementing his status as one of football’s brightest young stars.
