French newspaper 'rubs salt' into Lamine Yamal

French media not only celebrated PSG's 2-1 win over Barcelona but also took the opportunity to mock young star Lamine Yamal.

On the front page, L'Équipe ran the headline “Ballons d'Or”, both praising the Paris players and mocking the 18-year-old Barca player (Lamine Yamal) - who just over a week ago lost the Ballon d'Or race to Ousmane Dembele. PSG's celebration photo was chosen with Vitinha in the center, as an affirmation of the European champions' superiority.

In the scoring section, L'Équipe did not hesitate to "dethrone" the Barca stars. Lamine Yamal only received 5 points, despite an exciting start. Frenkie de Jong and Dani Olmo were even worse, receiving 3 points for their lackluster performances in a match of great significance.

In contrast, Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes both received 8s, reflecting their strong influence both in attack and defence. Mendes, in particular, was praised for almost completely “locking” Lamine – a detail that the French media saw as evidence of a difference in class.

Even the coaches were put on the scale. Luis Enrique received a 9, while Hansi Flick only got a 3 - illustrating the clear difference in tactics. From the perspective of the French press, PSG not only won all 3 points, but also dealt a heavy psychological blow to Barca and their most promising young star.

In the early morning of October 2, in the second match of League Phase, Champions League, PSG defeated Barcelona with a score of 2-1 right on the opponent's field. This is a match where Luis Enrique's team did not have the services of Ousmane Dembele, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Desire Doue.
