What made Barcelona manager Flick swap Lamine Yamal for Alavés so early?
Online information on Barcelona head coach Hansi Flick’s decision to bench Lamine Yamal during the team’s match against Deportivo Alavés was made available on Monday.
Of course, Barcelona just finished their eighteenth consecutive victory to start the La Liga season on Sunday.
In Vitoria-Gasteiz, the Blaugrana eventually came out on the winning side of a 3-2 scoreline thanks to a hat-trick from Robert Lewandowski.
While Raphinha provided assists for two of Lewandowski’s three goals and the forward was intensifying his early-season campaign to win the Pichichi trophy, Lamine, for the second time in a row, was unable to record an assist or a goal.
Consequently, the 17-year-old was unable to contain his annoyance when his number appeared on the fourth official’s board, signalling his departure halfway through Sunday’s second half.
However, Lamine’s removal was a wise move made by Supervisor Hansi Flick.
Flipper made the decision to switch him in Vitoria since he is expected to feature for Spain in the two UEFA Nations League games against Denmark and Serbia.
Barcelona’s head coach is naturally eager to do all in his power to prevent any more injury setbacks in his team, given that the team is scheduled for a run of high-profile games just after the international break.
