Yamal shines in Champions League and targets Lemina on social media

The young Spanish prodigy Lamine Yamal lit up Wednesday night, October 14, 2026, with an MVP performance in the Champions, while at the same time he launched a provocation against former Juventus player Mario Lemina on social media, asking whether he now recognized him.

Spectacular comeback in Champions

In the match against Galatasaray, the blaugrana scored four goals, thanks especially to Yamal, who provided two assists and received the MVP award. The 2007-born prodigy thus consolidated his prestige number, becoming the absolute protagonist of the game.

The result fueled the march of Flick's youngsters, who continue to collect goals. After the match, the club shared on the official channels a photo of the MVP award and Yamal's play, accompanied by the question “Does he know me now?”.

Lemina's torment on social media

Yamal's excitement turned into a digital jab at Lemina, who a few days earlier had responded to a viral game by asking “Who is Yamal? I know Sané but not Yamal.”
