On the morning of May 1, Yamal had an excellent performance in Barca's 3-3 draw with Inter Milan in the first leg of the 2024-2025 Champions League semi-finals.
Coach Hansi Flick's team unexpectedly let their opponents take a 2-goal lead in the first half. And the 17-year-old prodigy's moment of genius helped his team score a goal right after that.
Starting from an attack on the right wing, after a few moves, Yamal dribbled straight into Inter's defense. He eliminated the opposing center-backs and then launched a tricky shot to score for Barca.
This goal by the 17-year-old striker was considered by fans as the "craziest" moment of this season's Champions League.
During the remaining time, the Spanish player is still the main factor in Barca's attack and the soul of the attack.
After the match, he received a lot of compliments from experts around the world . Most notably, Man United legend Rio Ferdinand said that Yamal is the best player in the world right now.
Ferdinand wrote on X: “Yamal is a real football talent, I think he is on a different level to any player playing in the top 5 leagues in the world. 17 years old - unbelievable.”
Meanwhile, Inter Milan coach Simone Inzaghi also had special praise for this player. He said Yamal is the type of player that only appears once every 50 years.
This morning's match also marked Yamal's 100th appearance for Barca. He surprised everyone by contributing 22 goals and 33 assists.
If compared to two contemporary legends at the age of 17, Ronaldo only had 19 appearances with 5 goals and 4 assists. Messi only had 9 appearances with only 1 goal.
In addition, the young Spanish striker also owns noble titles such as Euro, La Liga, King's Cup and Spanish Super Cup.
