Lamine Yamal keeps proving he can make a difference at any time.
The 19-year-old FC Barcelona star scored a stunning goal in the 10th minute of his club's visit to Real Betis - a top-three La Liga clash that is Barca's toughest match yet in a stretch of challenging encounters.
After getting a feed from Jules Kounde, it was all Yamal, who ran toward the corner of the area but rolled the ball under his foot and cut back just before entering the box.
From there, he placed a left-footed shot perfectly into the upper 90 of the goal, beating Betis goalkeeper Alvaro Valles and opening the scoring.

From there, he was off to celebrate, posing with the corner flag, then wrapping his arm around Kounde while sitting on the advertising boards.
It's already the ninth goal of the La Liga season for Yamal, though he is still chasing teammate Raphinha in the Pichichi race.
