Lamine Yamal Reaches Messi and Neymar Milestone Despite Barcelona’s PSG Loss
Lamine Yamal has become the first player in Europe’s top five leagues since Lionel Messi and Neymar in 2022/23 to record 10 goals and 10 assists before November. The 19-year-old reached the landmark in only 12 appearances for Barcelona this season. Messi needed 17 matches and Neymar 18 to achieve the same figures for Paris Saint-Germain. Yamal scored Barcelona’s second goal in their Champions League clash with PSG, but the Spanish side fell to a 4-2 defeat after late goals from Vitinha and Fabián Ruiz. The result ended Barcelona’s 11-match winning run. He has contributed eight goals and six assists in La Liga, plus two goals and four assists in the Champions League.
