While others fear Real, Barca can’t: Yamal

Real Madrid is known as the best club of all time. They have 15 Champions Leagues in their showcase. The best stars of the time are eager to play for this club. Naturally, Real is a nightmare for any team as an opponent. Real’s opponents fall behind mentally before they even get into the fight on the field. However, Barcelona can bring down the mighty Real from the sky. It can be said that the Catalan club is the ‘nemesis’ of the Madrid giants. Real, which has become invincible, somehow lost its nerve when facing Barca. This season, the star-studded Real has not been able to defeat Barca even once in four appearances.

Barcelona has defeated Real Madrid in two finals this season. Barca won the title by defeating Real in the finals of the Spanish Super Cup and the Copa del Rey. The Catalans had the last laugh in the two El Clasicos in the league, which set the course for the title. Barca will lift the title if they beat Espanyol in the next match in La Liga. Barca also defeated Real in the pre-season match before that. And Barca celebrated goals in each of these matches.

In the last El Clasico, Real Madrid took a 2-goal lead after 14 minutes, but Barca eventually won 4-3. Lamine Yamal scored Barca’s second goal in that match.

However, Barca did not match Real last season. The Catalans lost three consecutive El Clasicos. At the time, Yamal was saddened. The Spanish winger told ESPN, “Madrid does not like losing. It is true that we could not beat them last season, we suffered and this year we have turned the situation around by squeezing everything we have.”

What is the secret of Barca’s success despite the rest of the team struggling with Real? – Yamal said, ‘The rest may be afraid to play against them (Real Madrid), but we are not afraid. So we just give our all. We think we are better than the rest of the teams, we move forward with this mentality.’

‘I think this is how you should play against them. You have to present yourself as the best and enjoy your game, that is the formula.’ – Yamal added.

Yamal is having a great season. In total, the winger has scored 16 goals and provided 24 assists in 52 matches.
