Barcelona winger, Lamine Yamal, has incurred the wrath of Real Madrid players after accusing the club of “cheating and complaining”.

Spanish sport daily, Marca, reported that the Real Madrid dressing room received the remark with frustration, with some of the players tagging him a “poor sport.”

The 18-year-old made the remark during a Twitch chat with Barcelona legend, Gerard Piqué.

He said, “Yes, they steal, they complain, they do things I don’t even know…”

The remark comes days before El Clasico, heightening tensions ahead of a game where Xabi Alonso’s side are desperate to prove a point, after four straight losses last season.

Marca reported that Real Madrid players believe Yamal “doesn’t respect professional codes” and his youthful age was not an excuse. (The Sun)
