Lamine Yamal received a tough challenge from Neyou in the 15th minute, which ended with a bad gesture on his right ankle. An ankle that already left him out of the game for three weeks this season. The striker continued on the field for fifty more minutes – he was assessed at half-time and it was decided that he should continue – but his feelings were not good, as he made clear on two occasions, where he even made a threat to ask for a change.. However, he finally backed out and wanted to continue testing. But it was evident that Lamine was not doing well, nor was he asking for the ball, nor was he the protagonist, blurring himself on the field. So much so, that he ended up abandoning the right wing and placing himself further inside, where the one-on-one factor was lost and he could not exploit his speed and power..
In the end, Flick, through his assistant Marcus Sorg, decided to replace him, although he kept him on the field until the 74th minute. In any case, we must applaud the effort of the youth player, who despite not being well, tried to continue in the field.
As AS has learned, more tests will be carried out on Yamal this Monday to assess the condition of his right ankle.. It must be remembered that this is not the first time that Lamine suffers an injury in this area: in the match against Red Star on November 6, he suffered a blow to his right ankle that ended up causing a grade one injury to the syndesmosis of his right ankle with an initial prognosis of two to three weeks.. Finally, it was extended to three, missing the games against Real Sociedad, Celta de Vigo and Brest.
Right now, and with the match against Atlético de Madrid less than a week away, The club does not take the player’s presence for granted for this last appointment in 2024..
