Beyond the skills that Barcelona’s young star displays on the pitch, a recent gesture by Lamine Yamal has sparked controversy and anger among Real Madrid fans.

The Controversial Gesture by Lamine Yamal

Following Barcelona’s resounding victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup Final, a viral moment caught everyone’s attention. Lamine Yamal posed for a photo with a young Real Madrid fan who was nearby during the Blaugrana celebrations. However, what the cameras captured stirred debate.

Lamine Yamal’s Gesture That Upset Madrid Fans

The Barcelona player first gestured toward the child’s shirt before covering the Real Madrid crest with his hand. Interestingly, he wasn’t the only one. In the same post shared by Instagram user @Gary Allen, Robert Lewandowski can also be seen doing the same in another photo.

A Controversial Photo but Without Malice

While some saw the gesture as provocative, the truth is that neither Lamine Yamal nor Lewandowski acted with ill intent. On the contrary, their actions likely made the young Real Madrid fan’s day, proving that rivalries can sometimes take a back seat.
