The Madrid "Real" club forward Kylian Mbappe commented on his game with Lionel Messi and defended Lamine Yamal from the pressure he faces:

"I really enjoyed playing with L. Messi. I didn't expect that I would ever play with him.

My dream was to play for the "Real" team and I never imagined that I would play in the Barcelona team."

"L. Yamal? He plays in a club that is significantly more high-profile than the one I played in from the beginning,

I had my experience and he will have his. The Spaniard has a passion for football and that is the only thing he must not lose."

18-year-old Lamine Yamal has scored 2 goals in five matches this season.
