The return that never happened: Messi could have returned to Barcelona before signing for Inter Miami - Soccer.
“You just conceded four goals… and you ask Messi for his shirt? What a shame”
It was already a tough away game for FC Barcelona, but it turned into a genuine nightmare for Lamine Yamal, who couldn’t get past the wall that Marc Cucurella built, making it clear that a new star stepped up in Chelsea's 3-0 Champions League thrashing.
"I feel like I'm getting back to being myself again – renewed, recharged, refocused, with nothing holding me back from being who I am," was the message the Barcelona player posted before the match, a game that exposed how far he currently is from his best level and how much more is needed from him if he wants to stay among the elite.
A rough Premier League experience for Lamine Yamal
This was Lamine Yamal's first ever match against a Premier League club, and we can all agree it was a very bad experience for the Spaniard.
Cucurella gave a masterclass in how to neutralize the winger who has been dazzling the entire football world, while at the same time Estevao was a decisive factor for Chelsea on the right flank, punishing Barcelona’s defense whenever he felt like it and validating all the pre-match comparisons with Lamine.
The Brazilian scored and clearly outperformed Lamine – that's a fact. He scored a stunning goal in the55th minute after a terrible mistake in a Frenkie de Jong pass out from the back, and later, after twisting Pau Cubarsí inside out, unleashed a ferocious right-footed strike that Joan García had no chance of stopping.
As a conclusion, it's fair to say that right now Estevao isn’t far behind Lamine Yamal at all. This match serves once again as a harsh lesson for the Barça player: every time he posts something on social media, the next game turns into an absolute nightmare.
For a Barcelona side that keeps showing different faces from one week to the next, the only thing left is to bounce back and focus on Alavés in LaLiga, although a clash against Atlético Madrid – a match that could shape the title race – is already just around the corner.
