Lamine Yamal took a swipe at Jude Bellingham as he celebrated Barcelona’s 4-3 win over Real Madrid on Sunday.

Despite an historic hat-trick from Kylian Mbappe, Barcelona held firm and roared to a dramatic comeback victory, with Yamal scoring his side’s second en route to a win which leaves them seven points clear at the top of the La Liga standings with just three games to play.

Celebrating the win, Yamal took to Instagram to post a photo of himself in action. In his caption were the words, “Don’t forget to like this one too” – a clear dig at Bellingham and Madrid legend Sergio Ramos over their own social media activity earlier in the week.

After Inter knocked Barcelona out of the Champions League, the two Madridistas both liked a post from Inter centre-back Alessandro Bastoni which included an image of the Italy international standing tall above a felled Yamal.

Yamal’s message was clearly a popular one inside the Barcelona dressing room. Forward Ferran Torres, who walked away with three assists, responded with laughing emojis, and centre-back Inigo Martinez urged Yamal to “keep dancing”. Gavi simply described the winger as “the best”.

Interestingly, Barcelona transfer target Marcus Rashford also responded to the post. The Manchester United forward, who is believed to be taking action behind the scenes to try and facilitate a summer switch to Catalonia, replied with “Young King”.

Speaking to reporters after the game, Yamal admitted the victory over Madrid was the perfect response to Barcelona’s Champions League heartbreak.

“Barca is the club of my life, to play in a Clasico and score a goal, it’s incredible,” he said. “We could’ve scored more today!

“I told my mother that there is a new Champions League season every year… and we will keep fighting for it. It was a very important match, after the Champions League elimination we wanted to win. Now it’s time to enjoy.”
