The fallout of [Lamine Yamal’s brilliant strike which lit up the Camp Nou](/barcelona-la-liga/110999/barcelona-real-oviedo-la-liga-final-score-match-report-recap-reactions) with a goal that instantly grabbed global attention is still being felt. The teenager’s audacious volley, set up by Dani Olmo, sealed a 3-0 win over Real Oviedo and sparked praise from sports outlets across Europe.
Italy’s _La Gazzetta dello Sport_ called him “Superlamine… worthy of Messi.” In France, _L’Équipe_ described it as “a jewel,”
_Kicker_ in Germany highlighted the technique: “a spectacular bicycle kick, sending the ball into the bottom left corner and earning a standing ovation as he was substituted minutes later.”
_A Bola_ in Portugal called it, “the most beautiful play of the match, a fantastic goal that will go down in history for the young player and the league alike.”
Meanwhile, _The Guardian_ praised the elegance of the strike: “an exquisite scissor-kick volley that nestled just inside the right post.”
The game itself wasn’t as smooth for Barcelona in the opening 45 minutes. Oviedo’s disciplined setup made chances hard to come by, and Pedri’s absence in midfield was felt, as the team often looked static or predictable. It wasn’t until the second half that Barcelona finally found rhythm.
Dani Olmo opened the scoring after high pressing from Yamal, followed by Raphinha converting a defensive slip from Oviedo. Then came the moment that made everyone forget that slow start. _That_ Yamal acrobatic finish in the 73rd minute, set up well by Olmo with a great pass. It was a strike so clean and audacious it brought the crowd to its feet even under the drizzle.
