Lamine Yamal has been vocal about his desire to win the Ballon d'Or award, as reported by VoetbalPrimeur. The young Bayern star has mentioned multiple times why he thinks he deserves the prestigious prize. Union Berlin's media team have taken a lighthearted approach to Yamal's comments, suggesting that he may have motivated Bayern teammates Harry Kane and Michael Olise to perform well. Kane scored two goals in the match, while Olise completed his hat-trick with a quarter of an hour remaining. Ismael Saibari also made his mark, scoring his first goal for Bayern as an injury-time substitute.
