HIBAPRESS – Follow-up
The sudden injury of rising star Lamine Yamal has sparked anticipation within the football circles in Spain, during the match that brought together his team Barcelona and Celta Vigo, which ended with a victory for the Catalan team with a goal to nil, just weeks before the start of the World Cup.
The young player, who is not yet 18 years old, felt muscle pain immediately after taking a penalty in the first half, which he managed to convert into a goal, before showing clear signs of discomfort, as he grabbed the back of his left thigh, which necessitated quick intervention from the medical staff. After an initial assessment on the field, it was decided to substitute him, and he left the field walking, with player Ronny Bardghji entering in his place. Although his exit was not worrying in terms of the ability to walk, the nature of the muscle injury raises questions about the possible duration of his absence. This development did not go unnoticed by the technical staff of the Spanish national team, who are betting heavily on Yamal's services, especially after his outstanding performance and his contribution to the team's crowning with the Euro 2024 title, which makes his health status a point of close follow-up in the next stage.
