After several difficult weeks in which he played very little and couldn’t be at his best, Lamine Yamal seems to be on right track again. The youngster played very well off the bench in the Spanish Super Cup semi-final against Osasuna and scored the second goal in the game to wrap up the victory and give himself a much-needed confidence boost.
Yamal became the youngest player to appear and score in a Spanish Super Cup match with his exploits on Thurrsday, and he is in contention to start for the Blaugrana in Sunday’s Final against Real Madrid in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia after Raphinha’s hamstring injury opened the door for the 16-year-old to prove he’s good enough to have an impact in the biggest game of them all despite his age.
