Lamine Yamal Injured in Barca Win

Yamal signaled to the bench immediately after converting the spot kick in the 40th minute and was replaced before halftime.

Initial reports suggest a potential muscle tear, which would require a lengthy recovery period just 50 days before the tournament begins.

The win restored Barcelona's nine-point lead at the top of La Liga, but the mood was dampened by the loss of their most influential young talent.

Barcelona's medical team is expected to release a full diagnosis following further tests on Thursday.
