Barcelona 2-1 Athletic Club: Yamal & Lewandowski Score to Clinch Victory ⚽

What a match it was at Camp Nou! Barcelona clinched a thrilling 2-1 victory against Athletic Club, keeping the energy high and the standings interesting.

Young Lamine Yamal kicked things off with a bang, netting a goal in the 24th minute with a shot that took a lucky deflection. The crowd was barely back in their seats when Athletic Club struck back. Oihan Sancet, cool as a cucumber, converted a penalty before the break—talk about timing!

The second half was all about Robert Lewandowski. The guy hit the post twice, talk about bad luck, but persistence pays off. In the 75th minute, he finally found the back of the net with a rebound that he didn’t miss. That sealed the deal for Barca, marking their second win in a row.

While Lewandowski’s late game heroics stole the headlines, it was Yamal who really shone brightly. Among the post-2005 born players, he’s lighting up the stats with six goals and as many assists. On the other side, Sancet made his mark too, hitting his 25th La Liga goal and becoming one of Athletic’s youngest to do so this century.

With this win, Barcelona ties with Celta Vigo at the top—both sitting pretty with six points. Athletic, on the other hand, is figuring things out, parked at 15th with just a single point from two outings.
