‘CRAZY’: Las Palmas coach Garcia Pimienta says he ‘can’t believe’ the quality of the Barcelona pair

Tonight, García Pimienta, the head coach of Las Palmas, praised Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsí, two young stars for Barcelona.

Pau Cubarsí once again led Barça's defense and showed off the ball

As much, of course, because they both played key parts against Las Palmas not long ago.

Los Amarillos went to Catalunya on Saturday for a tough La Liga match against in-form Barcelona. This was their first game back after the international break.

And in the end, it was the Blaugrana who came out on top with a 1-0 win.

Although the result didn’t really show how things went at Montjuïc, the hosts of the evening had really controlled the game the whole time.

On their way to that goal, the pair of Lamine Yamal and Pau Cubarsí were once again front and center.

It had only been a few days since Lamine and Cubarsí returned to Barcelona after being called up to the Spanish national team. They were trusted right away this evening.

And Xavi’s faith in them continued to pay off. In particular, the second player impressed again at center back.

The fact that García Pimienta was asked about the latest efforts made by Barcelona’s teenage stars while he was talking to the media after his team’s loss didn’t come as a surprise.

In reaction, Las Palmas’ headmaster said that he thinks Lamine and Cubarsí play like they’ve been playing together for a long time:

“Pau Cubarsí and Lamine Yamal play like they’ve been in La Liga for ten years.” “Totally crazy.”
