Lamine Yamal - Better Than CR7 & Messi?

Barcelona’s 17-year-old wonderkid Lamine Yamal lit up the Champions League stage with a sensational performance in a pulsating 3-3 draw against Inter Milan. The teenager’s dazzling footwork and composure under pressure left fans in awe and even earned high praise from Inter boss Simone Inzaghi, who hailed him as “a phenomenon born every 50 years.” The match was a rollercoaster from the first whistle — Marcus Thuram gave Inter an early lead, followed by a brace from Denzel Dumfries. But Barcelona roared back with goals from Yamal, Ferran Torres, and a chaotic own goal by Inter keeper Yann Sommer to level the tie.

Over in the other semi-final, PSG secured a narrow 1-0 advantage over Arsenal thanks to an early strike from former Barça winger Ousmane Dembélé. With both ties hanging in the balance, the stage is set for an explosive second leg. We’ve got all the action, all the drama, and all the talking points from across Europe and the Premier League, right here on Just For Kicks.
