📊 Lamine Yamal sets new record with opener in Atleti-Barça clash It's taken Barcelona prodigy Lamine Yamal less than five minutes to open the scoring in the second leg of their Champions League quarter-final tie against La Liga rivals Atleti. Hansi Flick's side trailed Atleti by two goals after the first leg at the Nou Camp last week, but the comeback is already on inside the opening few minutes in Madrid. The teenager found himself in space, received a through ball and then found the back of the net to cut the deficit in half.

In doing so, Yamal becomes the youngest-ever player to be directly involved in 10 or more goals in a single Champions League campaign. Is the comeback truly on for Barcelona, or will Atleti restore control of the tie once again?
