For the second successive La Liga matchday, Barcelona fell to a disappointing outcome. They had been defeated 1-0 by Actual Sociedad two weeks in the past, earlier than on Saturday night time.
Barcelona had gained 11 of their opening 12 league matches earlier than the defeat at La Actual, with that slip-up being in opposition to Osasuna (4-2). On all three events, Lamine Yamal has not been within the beginning line-up.
Towards La Actual and Celta, the 17-year-old was dominated out due to an ankle harm, whereas he was benched for the defeat at El Sadar. On every event, Barcelona have struggled with out his presence within the staff.
Lamine Yamal has made 16 appearances for this season, and the Catalans have been on the successful facet in 15 of these matches – the one blip was in opposition to Monaco (2-1 defeat) within the Champions League, which was a fixture that he scored in. There’s little question that they are going to hope to see him again in motion as quickly as potential.
