Inter Milan striker Marcus Thuram mocked Savagely Lamine Yamal on Instagram after the triumphant Champions League wins on Barcelona – before he quickly removed the post.
The Italian giants made up a classic of all time on Tuesday in the San Siro and beat Barcelona 4-3 on the night and 7-6 to book their place in the Champions League final at the end of the month.
With the score on 3-3 on the way to the home leg of Inter, the Serie A Club hit twice through Lautaro Martinez and Hakan Calhanoglu to claim an advantage of two goals before the break.
The Catalans responded excellently in the second half and took Eric Garcia and Dani Olmo twice in six minutes to level the score before Raphinha scored what looked like the winner for Barcelona in the 87th minute.
But the MAD Champions League strop had a turn in the tail, with veteran Center-back Francesco Acerbi who scored a 93rd minute to force extra time and to allow Inter for half an hour to find a winner through replacement Davide Frattesi.
Despite the fact that they contribute to one of the biggest ties ever of the Champions League, the stars of Barcelona were understandably destroyed at the last whistle and comforted by a handful of Inter Milan players.
Thuram, who led the line excellently for Inter during the competition, offered his condolences to the 17-year-old sensation Yamal after the game, because the couple shared a sincere moment.
Although he seemed to support the young superstar after the game, Thuram later went to social media to troll the Spaniard by calling back to a post Yamal made before the game.
The Frenchman shares an image of the two after the competition, 'On a mission Ehh !!', about his Instagram story with two crying with laugh emojis.
The caption referred to a social media post Yamal shared prior to the semi -final, with the text: 'On A Mission'.
Thuram's post was later removed and replaced by another caption: “Greatness recognizes greatness.”
Although it is only 17 years old, Yamal has already achieved 100 performances for Barcelona and praised as one of the best players in the world.
Although he did not score in the second stage, the Spanish teenager was a constant threat on the right side of Barcelona and almost brought the game to bed with a long -distance strike before Acerbi's dramatic late equalizer from Acerbi.
Waxing lyrical about Yamal's talent for the competition, former man United and England -star Wayne Rooney told TNT Sports: 'He is incredible. Barcelona usually has these kinds of players.
'Of course (Lionel) Messi and Ronaldinho and (Luis) Figo and Rivaldo and all these players. He is the newest. What I like about him is that he has no fear.
“He commits defenders, lets them make a decision and he clearly got calm with his goals.
“I think he's the next player. We have had Messi and (Cristiano) Ronaldo for the past 20 years, he is the one who takes over. '
On 31 May on 31 May, Inter will take on the against Arsenal of PSG in the Champions League final in Munich, where the Gunners want to destroy a shortage of one goal in Paris on Wednesday evening.
