Barcelona must claim 9 points this week, says wonderkid Lamine Yamal

Barcelona, who lost second place to Girona last matchday, regained that position thanks to Michel's side's 2-2 defeat at San Mames and their 2-0 win over Real Sociedad, in a match in which Lamine Yamal and Raphinha scored.

After the game, the 'Cules' wonderkid spoke to the 'Movistar La Liga' microphones and was very satisfied with the win because it was crucial for their interests: "It was a very important game to get back into second place. We have to try to make it a nine-point week".

"La Real were able to do very well in the first half. It took us a long time to find ourselves, because they were very good at playing the ball out from the back, but little by little we were able to settle," said the striker to the 'Movistar La Liga' microphones.

Regarding his goal, Lamine Yamal admitted that he only had to "tap it in", in a great team move, initiated by Lewandowski and finished by the player from Mataro after a fine move by Gundogan.

Finally, in relation to the penalty, which made it 2-0, the striker commented that in the same action there were "two handballs" and admitted that he was surprised that the referee, Cuadra Fernandez, did not call any of them live. "But that's what the VAR is for," he insisted.
