Resu Sports May 19th News: In the 37th round of La Liga that took place early this morning Beijing time, although Barcelona eventually lost 2-3 to Villarreal, the performance of the team's young striker Yamal was still commendable.

In this match, Yamal demonstrated his outstanding individual ability in the 38th minute. He cut inside from the right flank, dribbled and then shot to score, netting his 9th goal of the season in the league.

According to statistics, this 17-year-old rising star has successfully completed an astonishing 150 dribbles in the top five European leagues this season. This figure leads all five leagues. The last time a player broke through 150 times was in the 2021/22 season (created by Saint-Maximin).

In the match against Villarreal, Yamal successfully dribbled past opponents 7 times throughout the game, with a pass success rate of 81%. He also succeeded in 8 one-on-one duals and created 2 scoring opportunities for his teammates. Undoubtedly, he is one of the most shining players in Barcelona's squad.

According to another statistics, Yamal is still the player who has scored the most goals outside the penalty area in the top five European leagues this season, having netted a total of five goals. In the last round of La Liga against Athletic Bilbao, this young Spanish player still has a chance to further break his personal dribbling and goal-scoring records.

It is worth mentioning that after Barcelona won the La Liga title this season, club president Laporta, when talking about Yamal's future, revealed: "We have reached an agreement on the contract renewal and are just waiting for the official signing."

According to the current plan, Yamal will officially sign the new contract after turning 18 on July 13th.
