Yamal 'Turns Up' To Rescue Barcelona

Coach Flick praises teen for inspiring their comeback; Inter's Inzaghi also impressed

- 

Lamine Yamal, after the teenager's brilliant goal spearheaded his side's recovery from a two-goal deficit in a thrilling 3-3 draw with Inter Milan in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on April 30.

Playing his 100th game at just 17 years and 291 days old, Yamal became the youngest player to score in a Champions League semi-final, eclipsing the record set by Kylian Mbappe, who was 18 when he achieved the feat in 2017.

The young Spain international's stunning individual goal breathed life back into the game for the Catalans, after they fell 2-0 behind early in the first half at home.

He went on to hit the woodwork twice and continually troubled the Inter defence in an impressive display at Barca's Olympic Stadium.

"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," Flick told Movistar Plus.
