Union Berlin jokingly blames Lamine Yamal for 7-0 loss to Bayern
Following a heavy 7-0 defeat against Bayern Munich, Union Berlin used social media to jokingly blame Barcelona player Lamine Yamal for the loss. The club's community manager referenced Yamal's previous comments regarding the Ballon d'Or, where he suggested the award should recognize the best player rather than just those who score a high volume of goals.
Union Berlin's post humorously suggested that if Yamal had remained silent, Bayern attackers Harry Kane and Michael Olise might not have been so motivated to perform. Kane and Olise were central to the rout, contributing five of the seven goals. The club followed up the joke with a second post asking followers to keep the tweet away from Barcelona to avoid facing the wrath of angry Catalan fans.
