Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 63221, member: 636"] Lamine Yamal set a new Champions League record on Tuesday, becoming the player with the most appearances in the competition before turning 19. The Barcelona forward made his 24th Champions League appearance when he started against Paris Saint-Germain at Montjuïc Stadium in the second round of the group stage. He surpassed the previous mark of 23 matches held by Zaire Emery. The 18-year-old has scored five goals, and provided six assists in 1,682 minutes across his 23 previous Champions League matches with Barcelona. This season alone, he has played 302 minutes over four matches, scoring twice, and assisting on four goals. The achievement solidifies his position as one of Europe's most promising young talents under head coach Hans Flick. [/QUOTE]
