Lamine Yamal breaks Mbappé’s record in the Champions League | OneFootball

Lamine Yamal shone in Barcelona’s victory in the Champions League last Wednesday. The Spanish club defeated Newcastle 7-2 and qualified for the quarterfinals of the competition. The young forward scored a goal and provided an assist in the rout.

With his goal, the Spaniard became the youngest player to reach ten goals in the competition. The previous record holder was Kylian Mbappé, who achieved the feat at 18 years and 350 days old. Yamal, meanwhile, is 18 years and 245 days old.

Now, Yamal aims to become the top scorer in the competition before turning 19. The team’s next challenge will be against Atlético de Madrid in the quarterfinals. If the Spanish winger scores in the upcoming matches, he will set a new record.
