Barcelona, May 11, 2025 — Lamine Yamal had a message for his teammates and the fans after Barcelona’s thrilling 4-3 triumph over Real Madrid at Montjuïc on Sunday — “Enjoy it.” And rightfully so, as the Catalans not only completed a four-game sweep over their fierce rivals this season but also moved seven points clear at the top of the La Liga table, inching ever closer to clinching the title.
The 16-year-old prodigy played a key role in the rollercoaster match that delivered entertainment, tension, and ultimately joy for the Barcelona faithful.
Speaking to the media after the win, Yamal emphasized the significance of the result.
“It was a very important match to gain a considerable lead. After the Champions League match, it was very important to win, and even more so if it was against Madrid. Today is time to enjoy it,” he said, clearly elated by the result.
Barcelona’s high-intensity pressing and sharp attacking play saw them outscore their arch-rivals in a seven-goal thriller. Despite conceding late, Yamal acknowledged the areas that still need improvement:
“We have to correct those goals we gave away at the end. They created clear chances for us, but we’re happy.”
Yamal also took a moment to recognize the dedication of Barcelona fans, who have supported the team despite a turbulent season that saw them displaced from Camp Nou due to renovations.
“The way the fans support us is very special. It hasn’t been an easy year because we haven’t played at Camp Nou and they’ve had to travel here. We’re very grateful,” he added.
Though Barcelona’s Champions League journey came to a disappointing end earlier this month, the young winger remains focused on long-term goals:
“In the end, I told my mother, the Champions League comes every year. We’ll keep trying, but today was important to win to get closer to the league title.”
Barcelona now stand on the brink of La Liga glory. If Real Madrid drop points in their upcoming midweek fixture against Mallorca, Barça could be crowned champions as early as Wednesday — a poetic twist for a season marked by adversity, youth, and resilience.
Match Highlights:
- Barcelona 4–3 Real Madrid
- Barcelona now 7 points clear at the top
- 4th win over Real Madrid this season
- Lamine Yamal continues impressive form
- Title could be sealed midweek if Madrid slip
With performances like this and leadership emerging even from their youngest talents, Barcelona’s future looks as bright as its present. For now, Lamine Yamal and the fans have every reason to celebrate.
