""We can't keep missing these chances. It's good that we created so many chances, but we needed to finish off the game in the first half and score many more goals." "I'm really happy with Lamine Yamal's recent situation: He's not only focused on attack, but on defence as well." "It's really great to see and we want to have him at this level,""
""This is always our focus. We want to win every match. It's good to see this, and we're happy to play with confidence and play so well," "I think that we played a really great game, almost perfect... except in the last 3 meters," "Lamine Yamal is very young and he can become much better. He has incredible potential and we need him.""
Barcelona controlled the match at Estadio Martinez Valero and generated an expected goals (xG) total exceeding six while creating a large volume of high-quality opportunities. The side converted only three goals, finishing 3-1 despite chances that could have produced many more scorers and a far higher scoreline. Lamine Yamal, Ferran Torres and Marcus Rashford were the goalscorers on Matchday 22, with Yamal showing both attacking creativity and increased defensive contribution. Finishing efficiency must improve to match the attacking output, and the team displayed confidence and overall strong play despite the modest final margin.
