FC Barcelona managed to beat Levante UD 2-3 at the Ciutat de Valencia Stadium, in part, thanks to a great version of Pedri and, as usual, also of Lamine Yamal, who continues to add figures to his records.
In this sense, the new '10' of the Blaugrana team was responsible for serving the pass to Pedri so that he could then give an unstoppable right hand to Pablo Cuñat and put the 2-1 on the scoreboard in the 49th minute.
However, Lamine Yamal's prominence against the Valencian team did not end there, because at 90+1 he launched the 'poisoned' cross from the right side that ended in an own goal by Unai Elgezabal, who was fighting with Ferran Torres to prevent him from reaching the ball.
The native of Rocafondo was unstoppable throughout the entire match. On different occasions he managed to hit the goal, but he could not effectively beat the Levante goalkeeper, who ended up suffering in a unique way, as already mentioned.
Lamine Yamal's great match against Levante UD, supported by statistics
In this sense, the player left the Ciutat de Valencia with an assist and causing the comeback goal, but also Lamine completed the most dribbles (8) in the match and was the player who won the most duels (11) in the match.
Likewise, his outstanding performance, once again, earned him a score of 8.4, being surpassed only by Pedri, who reached 8.6. This is how the right winger faced the second matchday of LaLiga.
It should be noted that, for now, he remains at the top of the assists table (along with Nico Williams) in the domestic competition, since against RCD Mallorca he sent a cross to the far post that ended up being headed by Raphinha to open the scoring and he also scored a goal.
Lamine Yamal, going for the numbers of 2024/25
In this argumentative order, Lamine is looking to surpass his figures from the 2024/25 season, where he managed to score 18 goals in all the competitions in which the Blaugrana team participated, that is, League, Champions League, Copa del Rey and Spanish Super Cup.
To this we must add that he was able to assist on 25 occasions, participating directly in 43 annotations of the Blaugrana team. For now, he already has 1 goal and 2 assists in 2 matches.
Lamine Yamal, aware of his impact on Barça, wants to increase his goalscoring figures, something that is also supported by the technical staff led by coach Hansi Flick.
In addition to this, the player, like the rest of the squad, aims to achieve the major objective: the Champions League. In addition to revalidating what was achieved last year.
