The FC Barcelona leaves of Santiago Bernabéu with a quite painful defeat, because they were conscious that the team could achieve much more in front of a Real Madrid with rotations and that was to half gas after the effort in the Etihad Stadium the past Wednesday. The culés were in conditions to offer and do more, but only there was a player that marked the difference in the ninety minutes: Lamine Yamal.
The attacker of 16 years went back to be the most differential player of the Boat and 'confirm', of some way, that Xavi Hernández made a mistake to the hour to substitute him in front of Paris Saint-Germain after the expulsion of Ronald Araújo. It was the big prejudiced and today has showed that the history could have been very different. It was a torment for the Real Madrid by his left and desquició to Eduardo Camavinga.
The French was the attendant to defend the band in front of the absence of Ferland Mendy by annoyances. It saw surpassed in an infinity of opportunities and saw the yellow cardboard for going to the limit in an action in the edge of the area after demolishing to Lamine. The superiority was overwhelming, in big stretch of the party and forced to Carlo Ancelotti to give entrance to Fran García to support in the coverages. Antonio Rüdiger also collaborated in reiterated opportunities.
Lamine, the only attacker of the Barça that marked differences
The player formed to The Masia went back to mark the difference in a party in which it was especially only in the attack. It had split, of start, with Lewandowski and Raphinha in the offensive trident, but both were especially desconectados and decaffeinated in the field of the Real Madrid. The Barça dumped all the attack by the band of Lamine and could have marked his goal in the first part, with a finish that it hunted Andriy Lunin in the line, in the controversial goal ghost that from the VAR declared that it had not surpassed, in his whole, the line.
The true is that to Lamine him sobró the desparpajo that was missing him to his mates. Yes propició the goal of Fermín López that gave the momentary advantage to the culés in the second part (1-2) after a centrochut that refused Lunin. The balloon fell in the boots of the midfield player that, free of mark, commanded the balloon to save. It finish carrying the MVP of the night, contested with Lucas Vázquez, and although there is a bitter flavour of mouth, leaves of Santiago Bernabéu confirming that it is one of the big promises of the European football.
