6:01am, 12 August 2025【Football】

Fireworks exploded over the Cruyff Stadium, and 18-year-old Lamin Yamal pointed his hands at the heavy No. 10 battle jersey behind him. Under his feet, the Cuomo defenders sat down - in just 49 minutes, the boy had completely turned the Gambel Cup final into a personal coronation ceremony with two goals and one assist. Barcelona swept the scoreboard of Serie A team Como 5-0, announcing that the new generation of the Red and Blue Army officially took over the stage.

When Yamal scored a light shot in the empty goal in the 42nd minute, Hansi Flick on the sidelines flew hard. This goal originated from a low-level mistake in Como defender, but it is actually the perfect fruit of Barcelona's high-pressing tactics - Rafinia's smart interception and crossing the ball, Yamal appeared in a fatal position like a hunter. The performance that shocked the crowds 7 minutes later made the audience even more excited: as the left side was moving quickly, Valde passed the ball, Ferran Torres made a cushion, Yamal hit the ball on the right side of the penalty area and shot with his left foot, and the ball drew a perfect arc and hung straight in the far corner. Two goals, one cruel and one art, are like a tribute to Cruyff’s football philosophy.

More than one person shining on this night. 21-year-old Fermin Lopez used two long-range shots to open the door to victory. In the 21st minute, he intercepted the ball alertly and pushed it accurately. In the 35th minute, he received a volley from the top of the arc, and the ball hit the net like a cannonball. Ferming, who was elected as the official MVP, shocked the locker room: "Don't worry, fans, I will stay in Barcelona!" - The transfer rumors were wiped out in front of the iron-blooded double sound.

When the final whistle sounded, the warmth was quietly staged. When the old captain Roberto, dressed in Como's robe, was replaced, 40,000 spectators from Camp Nou stood up and applauded. The veteran who has played for Barcelona for 349 games has a slightly reddish eyes, and the inheritance and respect of the football world need no words at this moment.

However, there are still shadows under the glory. Rashford passed the goalkeeper alone in the 45th minute and missed the empty goal. Ferran Torres also missed the opportunity close in the 51st minute. The efficiency problem is like a thorn in the back, reminding this young guard: the road to the top of Europe still needs to be polished.

When the fireworks dissipated, Yamal gently stroked the Barcelona team badge on his left chest. From a 7-year-old schoolboy in Lamacia to a leader No. 10, he completed the handover of the scepter in 90 minutes. What makes the red and blue believers even more excited is that youth training elites such as Fermin and Kubasi and Yamal have jointly built the backbone of their local abilities, and Lamacia's hematopoietic ability is recovering strongly.

When the 18-year-old boy held his head high, Cruyff's turf seemed to have seen Messi first enter the Gambler Cup. In the cycle of history, a new era has begun. On the battlefield of the Champions League in the new season, Yamal, who vowed before the game to "take the Champions League home", is waiting to write the next chapter of the legend belonging to No. 10.
