Lamine Yamal causes a stir with his 'teasing' celebration of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe

In the 32nd minute, Yamal received a pass from his teammate in the penalty area. He immediately executed a skillful left-footed shot that sent the ball straight into the far corner, giving goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois no chance to block it.

The goal helped Barca equalize 2-2, before winning 4-3 on aggregate to touch one hand on the La Liga championship this season.

It is worth mentioning that after scoring, Yamal ran to the corner and "copied" the celebration movements of both Cristiano Ronaldo and Kylian Mbappe.

First, Yamal made the "calma" sign that Cristiano Ronaldo used to make for Real Madrid when he scored the winning goal against Barcelona at Camp Nou in the 2011-12 season. Then, Yamal stood still with his arms crossed in front of his chest, just like Mbappe did.

Yamal's celebration then went viral on social media, with many Barca fans then using the image to tease Real Madrid.

"Winning today in front of our fans is huge, especially after what happened in the Champions League semi-final," Yamal said in a television interview after the match.

Meanwhile, Barcelona coach Hansi Flick has praised Yamal's maturity.

"Yamal is not a kid. He is playing very well. He has confidence and belief in what he can do. Also Yamal is very intelligent. At 17, he is really playing very maturely. This is what we expect from him," he said.
