Barcelona star Lamine Yamal congratulated his on-loan teammate Héctor Fort on his performance against Real Madrid on Sunday.
Elche managed to snatch a valuable point from Real Madrid after a 2-2 draw at the Manuel Martínez Valero Stadium.
Fort played the full match and was one of the standout players for Eder Sarabia’s side, while Yamal watched closely, hoping for a Real Madrid slip-up that would bring Barcelona closer to the top of the table.
After the match, Yamal posted an Instagram story dedicated to Fort, accompanied by several encouraging and enthusiastic emojis.
Gavi also congratulated Barcelona’s on-loan goalkeeper, Iñaki Peña, on his impressive performance against Real Madrid’s attack.
Gavi wrote on Instagram to the Catalan goalkeeper, “Great job, Iñaki! So happy for you!”
Thanks to this draw, the gap between Real Madrid and Barcelona has narrowed to just one point for the Royal Club, after Hansi Flick’s squad won this round against Athletic Bilbao with a clean four-goal victory.
