The tremendous exhibition of Lamine Yamal in the semifinals of the Champions League against Inter Milan on Wednesday, with a ‘Messian’ goal and two shots to the crossbar, made the praise of ancient stars of world football jump and even a sympathetic request of an ex -barcelonist.
In the absence of two and a half months that he meets the age of majority, Yamal won the praises for his own merits after leaving a good repertoire of dribbles and actions that will be recorded in the memory of the lovers of this sport.
Lamine Yamal’s funny crossing with Thierry Henry
Annoying and serious for the 3-3 draw after a huge physical deployment, the attacker, who played his number 100 encounter with the Barca shirt, was lucid to the questions of the journalists.
He attended to the CBS microphone, from where an unexpected proposal of the French legend Thierry Henry arrived that took a smile.
The former Denrero, who played at Barça, told him that he would go to see the classic on May 11 and launched his request to Yamal. “Can you give me your shirt, ‘for FA’? For my son,” he asked. The Culé player responded with a counterofferta: “You have to make an exchange. You give me yours and I give you mine.”
No more was needed to seal this “Cracs Pact” that should occur in the duel against Real Madrid. Moreover, Henry offered to give him the elastic you want: “From Barça, from Arsenal, whatever you want,” the agreement closed in Spanish.
During the broadcast, Henry said that something that always amazes him in football “is that you always think that there is no way that someone will be better, or that may seem better than Ronaldo and Messi.” “It’s crazy to think that he is 17 years old. That is, 17 years old. I debuted at that age, I think. It is simply crazy what he is doing. It is abnormal,” said Henry.

The now CBS commentator also asked him why he seems so easy.
“I try to enjoy. That is the secret. Not thinking about anything. Giving the football I have. Try that people enjoy watching a game. I have not done anything yet. I have much to do, much to create and I hope that in the return it will continue like this,” he said.
Lamine Yamal: The praise of the rivals and the press
The international press also overturned to the player. “The best 17 -year -old player dribla as if he were in the park with his friends, receives the ball by the right wing and sometimes calms opening his arms as a captain. Unattainable, sometimes unstoppable,” describes the Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The inter, Simone Inzaghi coach joined the praise: “Yamal is one of those talents that are born every fifty years, I have not seen such a talent before.”

Also Alessandro Bastoni, who suffered Lamine throughout the match: “He is the best player in the world. Everything makes everything very simple.”
Yamal, who debuted with Barcelona at age 15, has seen two later how the world has surrendered at his feet before this still teenager who carries brackets, but shines the magic he has inside in the grass. “This boy is amazing,” Erling Haaland wrote, Manchester City striker, about Spanish.
