Barcelona forward Lamine Yamal was criticized after his flashy response to Villarreal fans.

If Vinícius had shown this gesture to the fans, we would have criticized him.

But the attitude towards these players is completely different in the press. I mean, Vinícius’s track record is much bigger than Yamal’s so far. It’s wrong to turn a blind eye to one player’s behavior but criticize another for the same thing,” journalist Manolo Lama said on COPE radio.

The host immediately reminded Lama on air that Vinícius also likes to provoke opposing fans, but few experts pay attention to that.

Recall that Lamine Yamal received a significant amount of booing from Villarreal fans after Renato Veiga was sent off for a foul on him. The Barcelona star responded to them after scoring a goal by mimicking a whistle during the celebration.
