Raphinha beaten to Man of the Match award by Barcelona teammate despite brace vs Osasuna | OneFootball

Barcelona star Raphinha was surprisingly beaten to the Man of the Match award in the club’s latest outing.

This comes after the Brazilian netted the only two goals of the game.

Barca of course marked their return to action a short time ago, welcoming Osasuna to Catalunya’s capital for a La Liga clash.

When all was said and done, the Blaugrana emerged on the right side of a 2-0 result, to extend their advantage atop the table, at least temporarily, to seven points.

The aforementioned Raphinha proved himself difference-maker when it comes to the scoreline, after notching both of the hosts’ goals.

Elsewhere on the Barcelona side of things, the likes of Pedri and Eric García shone bright, too.

But as alluded to above, it was another member of Hansi Flick’s squad who was ultimately handed the Man of the Match prize at the Spotify Camp Nou.

The player in question? Lamine Yamal.
