In a new edition of El Clasico, Real Madrid took an early advantage thanks to a goal from Kylian Mbappe, who quickly built on it, securing an early brace in the match against Barcelona. However, in a sudden burst, the home side — led by Lamine Yamal — quickly turned the game around.
After being fouled in the box by home goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny, the French striker took the penalty himself and, without hesitation, beat the Polish keeper to put Carlo Ancelotti’s side ahead for the first time in the match.
Minutes later, the former PSG striker struck again to put his team back in front with a precise finish past the Barça keeper. But there was no time to breathe, as the home side quickly pulled one back thanks to a goal from Eric Garcia.
Yamal pays tribute to CR7
Lamine Yamal, Barcelona’s standout star, leveled the score against their longtime rivals. After finding the back of the net, the talented forward celebrated by mimicking Cristiano Ronaldo’s iconic goal celebration.
Ronaldo’s trademark move
Cristiano Ronaldo, one of the greatest stars in recent times, is known not only for his talent and incredible goal-scoring record, but also for his trademark celebrations — iconic gestures that have been imitated by many fellow players around the world.
Using one hand to make the ‘Calm, here I am’ gesture, the Portuguese star immortalized this celebration, which was replicated by Yamal in his match against Real Madrid.
