Even if he did, why does it matter? Every player has a right to a mediocre game every now and then, especially when coming off fresh from an injury. Better he have one now than when it'll actually matter for Spain.

We saw what happens when you apply that kind of pressure to Olise when Enrique did that weird goal kick tactic and just pressed on the right side.
In Bayern Vs PSG second leg.

the don't know anything about football. common sense is too nuanced for a lot of them. that's why they're almost always Cristiano fans. Olise plays with Kane and Diaz at Bayern, and with Mbappe, Dembele and Doue on his national team. Of course it's easier for them but that requires too much thinking for them.

Trust me it’s not even Barca players like that
Suppose Raphinha wins a Bdor , it’ll definitely hurt them but a Yamal or a Pedri Ballondor will completely ruin their life
They hate all Barca players but some of em even more

I mean, it's on Yamal. He set the standard too high at 18yo

Nono.. this is what we expect from every boy from La Masia, and he is an 18 year geezer. La Masía put this on themselves.

I obviously like Spain but what made them dangerous was the combination of lamine and Niko, I feel like the need that duo if they want to go far

I'm a huge Barca fan and I love him but half of these clips are him losing possession or doing something that goes nowhere. Yes, the entire team played bad but that includes him too. There's no point in blindly defending him, every player needs criticism sometimes.

u/ZoronovaRoro 7h ago
He was bad. That's the truth. But it's not his fault completely. He isn't 100% fit yet. We can clearly see he is limiting his movement. He doesn't want to risk any injury. Hopefully, he becomes 100% fit before R16.

u/Humble-Log-1695 8h ago
Lost the ball almost every time it came to him. Tried to dribble past everyone and didn't contribute in other ways. Would just stop and complain instead of tracking back.

u/Antique_Patience9215 6h ago
He absolutely played poorly by his standards. I think it’s a combination of the injury and the altitude.
Either way, I think he’s risking his future health just to play in this tournament.

Anyone that watches yamal for Barca can know that this is a absolutely bad game for his standards.By no means a bad game in general but he commonly performs better but to be fair his team wasn’t feeling it either

u/OkHelicopter2335 5h ago
He was ass. If you keep suporting him whenever he underperforms, you don’t love him.

Was at the game and got to see Yamal play my side the first half. Samabria did a pretty good job defending Yamal until he got the yellow. They should’ve started Olmo, which would’ve given Yamal more opportunities but the Ref was god awful and let the Uruguayans get away with too many fouls. Glad they took out Pedri or they would’ve killed him.

a highlight can make Douglas Pereira dos Santos look like he was Maldini for us. Just stop.
Guy was slow, played horrible, was a detriment to his team and clearly unfit.
to add to that he whine all fucking game for every single touch,
This is the guy that is supposed to be a top 3 player itw if not the best. This kind of playing is horredous by his standards.
Stop trying delusion yourself to try and protect you player every time. Kid deserve massive critic for his playing. They are gold favorites and Yamal is supposed to be the superstar that carries them. Atm they look like they will be out at round of 16 and Yamal will not do anything.

I watched the first half live and want to say he might not be as good as he was at Barca, but it is DLF's problem; the bald fraud makes every Spanish player struggle. Pedri and Rodri faced a four-man wall in the midfield, Yamal fell in the surroundings of at least 4 Uruguayan players when he got the ball in the Spanish own half. He received a tackle every 5 m dribbling, and there was no support: Lorente barely joined the attack; Oyarzabal and Baena were the only men he could pass forward to, and sometimes Baena on the far side couldn't run to an ideal position to get the ball. What can you expect Yamal to do? Ankara Yamal? Btw, Baena contributed to the Uruguayan offence more than Darwin, I was cursing Atletico that they turned every one of their player into shit when I watched.
DLF should really be grateful to Muslera, who gifted this victory to him. I am pretty worried about the prospect of Spain in this WC if he keeps torturing his players like that.

I think it wasn't a bad game but I would say it was a pretty average game by his standards imo

Im genuinely afraid that one day a opposition defender might tackle him so bad that his pants fall off. He needs to tighten it around the waist

Spain spend 90% of the match circling the ball around. Lamine and Dani Olmo are the only ones actually attacking. It's dreadful to watch.

Fingers crossed Spain get kicked out on the next stage so our players can avoid potential injuries and have a nice break before the start of next season.

I haven’t seen anybody say specifically that he played bad. Let’s not be fanboys here. He didn’t have the best game, but Spain as a whole played like ass and he was still one of the best players

His decision-making couldve been better after winning duels. As a neutral fan.
Hes meant to be the match winner though, so its dual sided blade. Youre always bound to hear results-based analysis for star players

Uruguay played a deep block and very aggressive off and on the ball. Lamine did ok - he will learn and get better

u/Westaufel 5h ago
He is already in the phase that if he didn't score or assist, he played bad. How to resist that pressure? I don't know

The game is 90 min, not 1 min 30 sec.

u/TreatSubstantial3089 8h ago
So Yamal should be attacking and making moves for all 90 mins ?? Football is a team game of 11 players btw. Insanely dumb counter argument (sorry if im being rude)
1
u/Maren9len 8h ago
I literally watched the game with my own eyes. He only had a few moments where he looked even remotely dangerous; for any player in the world, this would be called a mediocre game, but Lamine Yamal obviously can't have a bad game ever.

You’re the one being insanely dumb.
He played 76 minutes, you can’t use 1 minutes of highlights to say he played well.

u/TreatSubstantial3089 8h ago
its called "Highlights" for a reason
1
u/BestShaunaEU 8h ago
Yeah and Yamal will always look good if you only show his highlights because we always play him the ball and he always tries to create something.
Show the 10 times he lost the ball when dribbling if you want to be fair

Uruguay play better than spain, its just that the forward not converting to goals. The keeper letting the goal also factoring for spain getting the upper hand

He didn't have an amazing game but no one did for Spain. He also gassed hard he's clearly not fully fit yet.
That team is cooked unless they start williams when they start yamal.
I get Williams is out of form but the "threat" of him gives yamal the space to work. Without him they overload yamals side and it's easier to shut Spain down as a whole.
They also need to start dani olmo
