To say that young people have no more respect for the ancients would be a bit rider in the case that interests us here. Holder this Wednesday for the Champions League semi-final which opposes his team from FC Barcelona to Inter Milan, Lamine Yamal has toasted politeness at Kylian Mbappé. His goal made him the youngest player in history to score a goal at this stage of the competition.
Kylian Mbappé has held this famous honorary record since one evening in May 2017. That day, the one who was still the striker of AS Monaco had found the flaw during the semi-final of C1 against Juventus. A meeting finally lost (1-2) but the Bondynois had entered history at 18 and 140 days.
A widely “improved” record
Lamine Yamal was even earlier. And far enough since the goal that the Spanish nugget planted on Wednesday against Inter Milan was at the age of 17 and 292 days. A new record that should be quite difficult to get, even if the records are precisely made to be broken.
In the meantime, Lamine Yamal allowed the Blaugrana to return to the game after being led by two goals to their lawn. The Catalan offensive has not been forgotten to score a memorable goal as he is often used to it.
