FANS were left in awe by Lamine Yamal as he nutmegged a Valencia defender with an audacious piece of skill.
The Barcelona winger helped his side to an incredible 7-1 win to maintain pressure on league leaders Real Madrid.
Yamal, 17, produced an assist in the match along with the most eye-catching moment.
The winger attacked the box down the right flank but came up against two Valencia defenders.
So he stepped over the ball and dummied to cut back, only to flick the ball through the defender’s legs before bursting into the box.
As soon as he pulled off the skill his team-mate Fermín López put his hands to the back of his head in shock.

Another added: “Fermin is all of us 😂😂”
