Lamine Yamal, Barcelona’s rising star, made a triumphant return to the starting lineup at Son Moix, helping his team secure three crucial points in La Liga after a series of disappointing results. Fully recovered from ankle issues that sidelined him for two matches, the Spanish winger delivered a performance that reinforced his growing reputation as a key figure in Barcelona’s quest for the league title.
“My ankle is now 100% recovered,” Yamal confirmed in the post-match mixed zone. His absence had been felt in Barcelona’s recent matches, where the team dropped valuable points due to what the player described as “careless mistakes.” Yamal, however, wasted no time in making an impact, contributing an assist and earning a penalty, both pivotal in Barcelona’s 2-1 victory.
Reflecting on the team’s struggles, Yamal emphasized the importance of reacting decisively after recent setbacks. “In the league, we lost careless points. A reaction was necessary,” he stated, highlighting Barcelona’s renewed focus and determination. Yamal credited the team’s first-half dominance as a foundation for their success, noting that efficiency in key moments was the message during the half-time break.
Barcelona’s win not only provided a morale boost but also served as a reminder of Yamal’s importance to the squad. With his return to form and fitness, Barcelona appears poised to reignite their title challenge, demonstrating that even young talents like Yamal can be decisive in the high-pressure environment of La Liga.
