Teenager Yamal scores for Barcelona to beat Mallorca in La Liga. Napoli next up in Champions League

 Youngster Yamal saved Barcelona with a late winner against Mallorca!

Barcelona secured second place in La Liga with a vital 1-0 victory over Mallorca on Friday night, thanks to a moment of magic from teenage sensation Lamine Yamal.

 

The Blaugrana, missing several key players through injury, struggled to break down a determined Mallorca side for much of the contest. The visitors frustrated Xavi's men with their physicality, forcing Barcelona into a series of errors.

 

Just when a disappointing draw looked inevitable, Yamal produced a brilliant performance in the 73rd minute. The 16-year-old midfielder picked up the ball on the edge of the area, beat a defender with a clever turn, and curled a curling effort that gave the Mallorca goalkeeper no chance.

 

Yamal's stunning strike proved to be the difference maker for Barcelona, securing all three points and showcasing the exciting young talent emerging at the Camp Nou.

 

The win is welcome for Barcelona ahead of their crucial Champions League clash against Napoli on Tuesday. With the first leg ending in a 1-1 draw, Yamal's heroics against Mallorca will give the Blaugrana much-needed confidence as they look to secure their place in the quarter-finals.
