Lamine Yamal scored the decisive goal as Barcelona defeated Athletic Club to restore their four-point lead at the top of La Liga.
The 18-year-old produced the breakthrough in the 68th minute at the Estadio de San Mamés, curling a superb effort past goalkeeper Unai Simon after collecting a precise pass from Pedri.
Yamal continues scoring run
Yamal’s strike was his 19th goal of the season and extended a remarkable run of form for the teenage forward.
The Spain international had already made headlines the previous weekend by scoring his first senior hat-trick against Villarreal.
Barcelona maintain title Advantage
The victory ensures Barcelona maintain their advantage at the summit of La Liga following Real Madrid’s 2-1 win over Celta Vigo on Friday night.
Attention now turns to European competition, with Barcelona set to host Newcastle United in the first leg of their Champions League round-of-16 tie on March 10.
Athletic Club will meanwhile resume league action on March 14 when they face Girona FC.
