Due to his precocity and his extraordinary talent, Lamine Yamal is sometimes compared to Lionel Messi.
Saturday evening, FC Barcelona faced Mallorca in the opening match of the 28th day of La Liga. Lamine Yamal scored the only goal of the match in favor of the Catalans. In the 73rd minute of play, the 16-year-old winger infiltrated the area, before getting on his left foot and curling his shot into the opposite corner.
After the match, Mallorcan coach Javier Aguirre compared him to Lionel Messi. “This comparison is not beneficial for him because he is totally different, Xavi, for his part, said. All the players who have been compared to Messi have ended up losers. It’s not good to compare him to Messi. »
Incredible precocity
“It’s true that there are moments when, when he comes in on his left foot and he puts it into the top corner, he brings back brief memories of Messi, However, the Blaugrana coach qualifies. But no, this comparison is not good because in the end he will lose. We are talking about the best player in the history of this sport. Better not to compare it. »
Coming from the La Masia training center, Yamal is the youngest player in the history of FC Barcelona to make his professional debut in La Liga and win the national title. He is also the youngest scorer in the history of the Spanish championship (16 years and 87 days).
