Lamine Yamal wasn’t on the pitch at the Metropolitano, but he still found a way to enjoy Atletico Madrid’s 2-1 win over Real Madrid.

The Barcelona teenager reacted on social media after the final whistle, engaging with a post from Atletico defender Marc Pubill. The post included several images from the derby, one of them capturing Pubill going into a challenge with Kylian Mbappe.
