FC Barcelona fans at the Spotify Camp Nou to watch the Catalan club take on Real Oviedo were in for a treat, as they saw Lamine Yamal pull off the spectacular with an incredible scissor-kick to make it 3–0 for Hansi Flick’s team on the night.
It was the kind of goal that makes the crowd rise to their feet in awe. Even considering Lamine’s incredible goal catalogue so far, this one will be high on the list due to the sheer difficulty of pulling it off.
After the game, his Barcelona teammates Raphinha, Pau Cubarsi, and Marc Casado were asked about the goal, and here is how each of them reacted, as quoted by SPORT.
Raphinha:
“It was a spectacular goal; I was on the bench, and we were all amazed by it.”
Pau Cubarsi:
“His goals are always spectacular, although this is one of the most spectacular he has scored.”
Marc Casado:
“I gave Lamine a couple of little taps; even in training, I’ve never seen him score a bicycle kick.”
Among these three, Pau Cubarsi has spent the longest time with Lamine Yamal, since their under-11 days. If he says he has never seen the Spaniard score a more spectacular goal, one has to take his word for it.
The goal that Lamine scored required incredible technique to pull off. The Spaniard could have taken the easy option, chesting it down and trying to turn his man to have a favourable angle to shoot at goal. It takes a bit of guts to pull off what he did.
Every time you think you have seen Lamine’s entire repertoire, he comes up with something new, and long may he continue to give similar joy to everyone who throngs to watch him play.
