Barcelona star Lamine Yamal stood in the heart of everything that is good for the Blaugrana in the first stage of the semi-final first leg of the Champions League against Inter. Only a few minutes before the game there was an injury fear, and it was believed that he could be excluded from the game.
The 17-year-old felt pain in his leg after a shot and left global warming early, went into the dressing room to receive a medical examination. However, he was suitable by the medical staff, and there was few signs of fitness problems as soon as the whistle had disappeared, as Lamine Yamal performed a brilliant version.
According to Esport3, however, there was more to his injury than that. They note that Lamine felt Yamal discomfort in his right quadriceps, that is, his thigh, and the medical staff has viewed it. They claim that Lamine Yamal had a painkiller to play by the discomfort.
That said, this was not the impression that the player or manager gave after the game. The 17-year-old called it 'nothing' in his interview after the game, while Hansi Flick seemed satisfied with his fitness after the game. The German coach noted that the medical staff had given him the green light before the game started.
Barcelona appears to be implementing mass stressations this weekend against Real Valladolid on Saturday evening and came from two tiring collisions against Real Madrid, who went to extra time, and Inter. The Blaugrana are obliged to win to retain their advantage over Real Madrid, but against one side that is Bottom and is already banned, many believe that Barcelona will make changes. Flick can be a bit tempted to let Lamine Yamal rest than before.
