Ronaldo vibes! Lamine Yamal copies iconic Cristiano celebration after stunning bicycle kick for Barcelona
Lamine Yamal once again delivered a moment that captured the imagination of football fans as Barcelona cruised past Oviedo with a comfortable 3-0 victory at Camp Nou. The teenage sensation not only scored one of the goals of the season but also added a layer of intrigue by mimicking Cristiano Ronaldo’s famous celebration, a gesture that quickly spread across social media.
The decisive moment arrived with 15 minutes remaining. Dani Olmo floated a delicate ball into the box and Yamal timed his movement perfectly. Launching himself into the air, the youngster executed a stunning bicycle kick, striking the ball cleanly and sending it beyond the helpless goalkeeper. It was a goal that showcased confidence, technique and fearlessness well beyond his years.
As rain poured down over the stadium, Yamal rose to his feet and performed Ronaldo’s iconic celebration, a nod to one of football’s greatest figures. The reaction inside Camp Nou was electric, with supporters applauding both the brilliance of the finish and the audacity of the celebration. It was a reminder that Yamal is not afraid to embrace the spotlight or the comparisons that come with his rapid rise.
Barcelona had already taken control of the match earlier, establishing a solid lead and limiting Oviedo’s attacking threat. While the overall performance was not flawless, the Catalan side showed maturity in managing the game. They struck at key moments and remained disciplined at the back, even as conditions became increasingly challenging.
The final stages were overshadowed by an unexpected hailstorm that swept through the stadium. Thunder and lightning accompanied heavy rain, forcing many fans to seek shelter. The pitch became slick and unpredictable, disrupting the rhythm for both teams. Despite the chaos, Barcelona stayed focused and saw out the match without incident.
This victory allowed Barcelona to maintain their narrow advantage at the top of LaLiga, preserving a one point lead over Real Madrid. In a season where margins are tight, results like this could prove decisive in the title race.
For Yamal, the night felt like another step forward in a career that continues to gather momentum. His blend of creativity, bravery and flair has already made him a key figure for Barcelona, despite his young age. With the league campaign ongoing and European commitments ahead, the club will hope their rising star can continue to deliver moments of magic when it matters most.
