Yamal’s goal means he’s now the youngest player to reach eight goals in the Champions League at the age of 18 years and 199 days, beating the record previously held by Mbappe (18 years and 302 days), per Mister Chip.
Yamal’s efforts against Copenhagen also mean he has now scored and assisted in a Champions League game for the third time. That’s a record he now shares with Mbappe - for now at least.
Yamal now has 13 goals and 13 assists in 28 appearances in all competitions so far this season for Hansi Flick’s side.
His performance on Wednesday night was also key as Barcelona managed to secure a top eight finish in the Champions League and automatic qualification to the last 16 of the competition.
