Why 2024 was the year of Barcelona, Spain star Lamine Yamal
One thing 2024 will be known for is breakout Barcelona and Spain star Lamine Yamal. At just 17, he’s already well ahead of where Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were at that stage, so just sit back and enjoy.
Erik ten Hag has aimed a barb back at Cristiano Ronaldo by suggesting the Portugal forward doesn’t know what he’s talking about because he’s “far away from Manchester.”
Carlo Ancelotti said criticism of Real Madrid’s 1-0 Champions League defeat at Lille was “fair” and that the team “shouldn’t look for excuses” after struggling against the Ligue 1 side.
