Lamine Yamal makes history Watch

 

This Wednesday, April 30, 2025, Lamine Yamal reached a new historic milestone by playing his 100th game with FC Barcelona's first team, in the first leg of the Champions League semifinals against Inter Milan.

And he celebrated it in style! Barcelona resurrected thanks to Lamine Yamal. The young Barça winger conjured up the 1-2 with a magnificent play, weaving through several Inter defenders inside the area, unleashing a left-footed shot to the far post, with the ball touching the post before beating Sommer and causing absolute ecstasy in the Montjuïc stands.At just 17 years old, the winger from Rocafonda becomes the youngest player to reach 100 games in the club's history, surpassing other academy graduates such as Pau Cubarsí (55), Bojan Krkic (49), Gavi (47), or Ansu Fati (40), and records set by legends like Lionel Messi.
