RAPHINHA IS ABSOLUTELY FILLED WITH GREATNESS!!
After scoring the first free-kick goal of his professional career, Lamine Yamal ran to the bench to hug Raphinha, who had just been substituted. Most people thought the incident had no special meaning. They are wrong. The reason Barca's number 10 wanted to celebrate a goal with the Brazilian was because, during the Champions League match against Feyenoord, he received support from Raphinha after his goal was disallowed.
🇧🇷 RAPHINHA (Movistar Deportes): 🗣 "Why did Lamine Yamal celebrate his goal with me? Because I know him, I know when he loses focus because things are not going his way. And, on the pitch, I tried to encourage him, telling him that things will turn around, that he will score. That's so he doesn't lose focus. In the end, he managed to score. I'm very happy for him. He needed that goal. This is the most important thing, that you are happy with each other. That's how happy you are with each other. how winning teams are formed."
Lamine began to despair because things were not going his way in front of goal. Raphinha noticed, went up to him, and told him not to give up because his goal was coming soon. That's why, when he finally scored, Lamine immediately wanted to hug his captain. He wears the captain's armband, but the absolute boss in Hansi Flick's team is Don Raphael. What a great man, please.
THIS IS A REAL CAPTAIN, GUYS!!
