Lamine Yamal breaks yet another Champions League record

Following his recent recovery from injury, Yamal started in Tuesday night’s 6-1 demolition of Olympiacos. It was his 25th appearance in the competition, making him the youngest player (18 years, 100 days) to reach that number of games in Champions League history.

The Spain international surpasses surpasses the previous record held by Paris Saint-Germain’s Zaire-Emery, who played his 25th match when he was 19 years and 32 days old. He also converted a spot kick in the second half to become the second youngest player to score a penalty in the competition.

He’s also the second youngest scorer in Champions League history, behind Barcelona teammate Ansu Fati.
