The teenage Spain international was named in the starting line-up alongside Raphinha and Ferran Torres in the Barcelona attack, stepped out for the warm-up as usual with the rest of his teammates, but had to return back to the tunnel for treatment ahead of kick-off.

Yamal appeared to touch the inside of his thigh during the warm-up. He was briefly seen to by a club physio on the pitch before heading back down the tunnel for further assessment.

Confirmation has since arrived that Yamal has still been cleared to play and that there were no last-minute changes to the Barcelona starting line-up.
