Lamine Yamal continues to dazzle in what has been a breakthrough season for the 17-year-old sensation.

The teenage forward produced yet another magical moment for Barcelona, scoring a brilliant goal in their penultimate La Liga match of the season against Villarreal on Sunday afternoon.

The game at the Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys got off to a rocky start for the Catalan giants, as Villarreal took an early lead.

Ayoze Pérez found the back of the net in the 3rd minute after exploiting Barcelona’s high defensive line, calmly finishing with his left foot inside the box.

However, the momentum shifted dramatically thanks to Yamal, who has been in electric form during the second half of the campaign.

The youngster stepped up once again, playing a decisive role in Barcelona’s response.

In the 38th minute, Yamal delivered a moment of pure brilliance as seen in a video shared on social media.

Picking up the ball on the right wing, he cut inside with purpose and unleashed a thunderous shot into the down corner—an increasingly familiar sight for fans this season.

It was a goal that not only levelled the score but also showcased his growing confidence and flair.

With this strike, he reached his ninth La Liga goal of the season, capping off an extraordinary year that has seen him become one of the club’s most exciting young stars.

In all competition, the Spanish winger has bagged 19 goals and registered 22 assists.
