Real Madrid midfielder Tchouameni: What I really thought of Lamine's claims

Real Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni says he was happy with Lamine Yamal's pre-match taunts ahead of Sunday's victory over Barcelona.

Yamal went into the clash claiming Real Madrid "are always stealing" before posting a message to Los Merengues fans insisting they do not scare him.

After Real's 2-1 win, Tchouameni said:0"I like that. At the end of the game, we saw a little bit of a thing between the players. We helped each other compete.

"When I was little, I saw those things against Barcelona and we were calm. I like it. They're just words, there's no bad intention. His determination helped us a little more.

"I like it. If Lamine wants to talk, there's no problem. The game is played on the pitch, and we won. We're very happy with our performance and we're looking forward."
