Barcelona overcame Getafe on Wednesday to make it seven wins from seven in La Liga. It was not a simple contest for the league leaders, who also saw Lamine Yamal go out at the end of the match with a knock.
The 17-year-old sensation was back from the start, and ended up playing 90 minutes at the Olympic Stadium. However, he took a hit in the dying stages, and at the full-time whistle, he was seen limping cautiously.
Understandably, this has raised fears among Barcelona supporters, especially with games coming up against Osasuna, Young Boys and Alaves before the international break. Fortunately, he appeared to be fine, with club sources reporting no injuries.

Regardless, it may be best for Lamine Yamal to be rested against Osasuna on Saturday, even if he is fine. For a 17-year-old, he has played a lot of football in these early stages of the season, so Barcelona should be concerned about a high risk of injury.
