“Calmed everything down”… Villarreal midfielder highlights how one Barcelona star made his team lose belief | OneFootball

FC Barcelona enjoyed a great night of football on Saturday as the won their La Liga game against a generally tough Villarreal team with a 4-1 scoreline.

The Yellow Submarines were unable to contain the Blaugrana forwards, especially Lamine Yamal, who scored a hat-trick. With this performance, the Spanish forward got some well-deserved praise from both his own side and his opponents.

As Mundo Deportivo has reported, in the latter category was also the Villarreal midfielder Santi Comesana, who talked to the press after the game, and said the following about Yamal:

“He has a habit of producing great performances against us. Sergi had help from Moleiro, but stopping players like that is very difficult. The second goal, for me, is a great goal. And in the other two he finishes very well. But beyond that, he kept taking players on constantly.”

Similalry, he also commented on how Pedri was decisive for his side:

Pedri and Lamine Yamal are two key players for Hansi Flick, and both of them put on a strong performance last night. Hopefully, they will continue performing for Barcelona in a similar manner going forward as well.
