Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal hits back at Rafael van der Vaart

Lamine Yamal has taken fresh aim at Rafael van der Vaart after Spain’s Nations League win over the Netherlands.

The teenager reacted to pre-match criticism by the former Dutch player by pulling his short a bit lower after scoring in the 3-3 draw against the Netherlands that saw the game go on to a penalty shootout.

Yamal actually missed his spot-kick but saw Spain go on to win 5-4 in any case and took to Instagram after the match.

“Pants down, a goal, missed penalty AND IN THE SEMIFINALS HEHEHEHE GO SPAIN! ”

Van der Vaart is known for his outspoken views and his latest comments clearly did not go unnoticed by Yamal.

The Barcelona teenager’s team-mates were quick to respond to his post too. Fermín Lopez, Hector Fort, and Ronald Araujo are among those to have liked the post, while Ferran Torres replied: “Turn them down a bit more, please!”
