Barcelona manager Hansi Flick has lavished accolades on Lamine Yamal for his heroic display in the stunning comeback against Inter Milan at Camp Nou.
The Spaniard played a key part with his amazing goal to revive the Blaugrana’s comeback despite a two-goal deficit.
“Lamine (Yamal) showed us the way with that incredible goal because it was crucial to score that goal after we were losing by two goals, he played really well,” the manager told Movistar Plus.
The Spain international’s calm finish not only lowered the deficit but also sparked confidence throughout the team and the supporters during a crucial part of the game.
The host’s style of play
Commenting on the team’s reaction, the gaffer applauded them, particularly the way they kept their aggressive identity under pressure despite the early setback.
“We played with style and we tried to win. Lamine was a very important player for us…”
The Catalonia giants’ tactical discipline and perseverance allowed them to reclaim control in the second half, therefore confirming their status as among the best in Europe.
Yamal keeps shining on
For one so young, the 17-year-old’s impact keeps growing, particularly in crucial games. Flick stressed the star’s constant influence at important times without thinking twice.
He added: “In the big games, as he has already shown, he always turns up.”
The winger’s presence will be crucial in Barca’s search of silverware as they face local and European tests.
A star in the making?
Every game confirms Yamal’s status among the best young stars in football. Additionally, under the German boss’s direction, his exposure appears to be surely magnificent.
The Spanish heroes will turn to their domestic league this weekend as they travel on the road to lock horns with Real Valladolid in a showdown that would make them have the prospect of winning the title for the 28th time.
