Match Report
Barcelona dug deep to claim a 1-0 win at San Mamés, with Lamine Yamal producing a moment of individual brilliance in the 68th minute to settle a tight, tense contest against Athletic Club.
Pedri, introduced at half-time in place of Marc Bernal, threaded a clever ball through to Yamal, who cut inside from the right and curled a stunning left-footed strike off the far post and into the net. It was the only breakthrough in a cagey game where clear-cut chances were at a premium for both sides.
Athletic threw everything forward in search of an equalizer but couldn't find a way past a resolute Barça rearguard. The victory keeps Barcelona four points clear at the top of La Liga, while Athletic Club remain stuck in mid-table as the title race enters its crucial final stretch.
