Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal was spotted limping after Spain\u2019s Nations League win over Denmark on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Yamal played almost the whole game in the 1-0 win but took some tough punishment from Denmark and appeared in some pain after the final whistle.<\/p>\n
He was spotted limping as the national team left the stadium:<\/p>\n
Barcelona will now be waiting anxiously for an update and will be hoping Yamal is OK with games against Sevilla, Bayern and Real Madrid up next.<\/p>\n
Luis de la Fuente spoke afterwards and said Yamal needs to get used to harsh treatment from opponents,<\/p>\n
\u201cThey should kick him\u2026 I had a teammate who would say to those who complained: what do you want them to give you, kisses? The opponent uses his weapons to the limits of the rules. You have to be as harsh as the rules allow. That\u2019s why there is a referee who sets that limit. <\/p>\n
\u201cAgainst young players of this talent, it\u2019s about intimidating, looking for contact . It\u2019s a bit like the law of football. The referee must protect these talented players. But Lamine must get used to that. Maybe in some situations the ball has to be taken away earlier, but that\u2019s football. I would love for this to be a bed of roses, flower power, but this is the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n
Spain are due to play again in the Nations League on Tuesday against Serbia but it remains to be seen if Yamal will play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
