Yamal learns Real lessons
The Straits Times
|October 28, 2025
Lamine Yamal's words before the Clasico caused more of a stir than his subdued performance on the pitch as Barcelona fell to defeat, and the 18-year-old can take some valuable lessons moving forward.
-
For the first time, the teenager became the main focus of an entire stadium's ire after comments he made before Real Madrid's 2-1 victory on Oct 26.
Joking on a social media stream appearance, he suggested Real "steal" and "complain", and he was harangued by the Santiago Bernabeu crowd as a result during Los Blancos' triumph that sent them five points clear of Barca at the top of La Liga.
Real players, led by captain Dani Carvajal, headed towards Yamal to remonstrate with him, as the ill tempered ending to the game boiled over after the final whistle.
Barcelona's assistant coach, Marcus Sorg, filling in for the suspended Hansi Flick, said the atmosphere might have affected Yamal's flat display.
