Granada 2-2 Barcelona: Xavi's side fight back as Lamine Yamal becomes La Liga's youngest scorer


Lamine Yamal set his latest record in a breakthrough year

Teenager Lamine Yamal became the youngest goalscorer in La Liga history as Barcelona fought back from two goals down to earn a point against Granada.

Aged 16 years and 87 days old, Yamal kickstarted Barcelona’s comeback.

The visitors fell behind after just 17 seconds, with Bryan Zaragoza’s first-half double putting Granada in charge.

But, after Yamal scored in first half added time, Sergi Roberto eventually ended Granada’s resistance with five minutes remaining.
