Lamine Yamal caused the penalty by Yoel Lago, was in charge of taking it, converted it, and got injured during the shot. Penalty, goal, and injury. He didn’t even celebrate Barça’s 1-0 against Celta. The scare at Spotify Camp Nou was big, as all interest on the pitch and in the stands focused on what was happening to the blaugrana star. The first explorations point to a rupture. Tests will be done this Thursday to determine the real extent of the injury. He could miss what’s left of the League (six matches). The World Cup starts on June 11, and in 53 days, on the 15th, the Spanish national team debuts against Cape Verde.

The sequence left no room for doubt. Barça’s number 10 had felt something. He saw the ball enter Radu’s goal, and immediately looked towards the bench and made a gesture with his right hand, which he had raised. Then he fell to the ground. He didn’t want to take another step. Just in case. He stretched out and spoke with Pedri.
He left with a look of disappointment
On the way to the changing rooms, the forward was talking about his feelings with Flick, who hugged him to console him
Medical assistance with Dr. Ricard Pruna quickly arrived, to whom the forward indicated that the discomfort was in the hamstrings of his left leg, with which he had just shot and scored the penalty. Although the stretcher had come out, the footballer preferred to leave the field on his own two feet, although his face was one of disappointment as he removed the bandage from his hand.
This was the seventh consecutive match in which Lamine Yamal was a starter, who at the beginning of the season suffered from pubalgia that kept him off the fields for several matches.

Another forced change
Before, Balde had replaced Cancelo, who was complaining about his right knee
Before leaving completely, Lamine was talking about his feelings with Hansi Flick and, after that brief conversation and a comforting hug, the coach ordered the change and the entry of Roony. However, despite the concern, he was seen on television as the number 10 climbed the steps of the changing room tunnel to go to the locker room with some normality for examination.
Lamine Yamal’s was the second forced substitution due to injury that Barça had to make in the first half against Celta, because in the 20th minute Cancelo had already fallen injured, complaining about his right knee. The Portuguese left his position on the left flank to Balde.
