Lamine Yamal shines as Barca demolish Bayern

Though he didn’t find the back of the net, Yamal’s contribution was significant, helping orchestrate Barcelona’s dominant display.

According to Eurosport, a hat-trick from Raphinha and a clinical finish by Robert Lewandowski overshadowed Harry Kane’s first-half effort, leaving Bayern with little to celebrate.

Yamal's masterclass vs Bayern

As noted by Goal, Yamal's most crucial involvement came when his exquisite long ball found Raphinha, who controlled it deftly before slotting a low drive into the corner for the fourth strike.

While a goal would have crowned his performance, the teenager's impact was undeniable, helping end Bayern’s six-match winning streak over Barça in European competition.

After the match, clips of his dazzling skills began circulating online, showcasing the teenager’s remarkable talent.

The 17-year-old sensation was unstoppable during the 85 minutes he was on the field, tormenting defenders with his lightning-quick feet and blistering pace.

His ability to glide past opponents with ease left fans in awe, as his football intelligence far exceeds his age.
