La Liga: Lamine Yamal Gives Barcelona Vital Win

By IANS News March 08, 2026 • 10:02 AM View: 121

Jon Ander Olasagasti: Lamine Yamal scored the only goal of the match midway through the second half to give FC Barcelona a 1-0 win away to Athletic Bilbao that keeps it four points clear at the top of La Liga.

Yamal took a pass from Pedri on the right side of the penalty area and curled an unstoppable shot in off the inside of the post.

The result was harsh on Athletic Bilbao, who gave one of its best displays of the season just three days after losing in the Copa del Rey semifinal to Real Sociedad.
