We Achieved a Hard-Fought Victory Against Bilbao, and Yamal Scored a Wonderful Goal

The Spanish star Pedri, a Barcelona player, spoke about his team’s victory against Athletic Bilbao, noting the difficulty of the match and the importance of the three points. He also praised his young teammate Lamine Yamal, who scored the goal of the match.

Pedri said, “The match was very important for us, especially since we were coming off a tough elimination by just one goal.”

He continued: “This was a very difficult pitch, and we entered the match feeling somewhat fatigued, so securing three points under these circumstances is extremely important.”

He added: “We didn’t move the ball quickly enough from side to side, and the opponent is pressing hard on their home ground and in front of their fans, so we need to correct some things.”

Pedri praised Lamine Yamal’s goal in the match, saying: “If it weren’t for Fermín López’s movement, this amazing goal wouldn’t have happened, but the way Yamal placed the ball made it impossible for the goalkeeper.”

He continued: “I told him no thanks for the assist; he’s a young player and shouldn’t be satisfied with what he offers. He should always strive to give more.”

Regarding his physical condition, Pedri explained: “Today, I arrived at the match not in my best shape because of what happened the other day.”
