Real Madrid had temporarily narrowed the gap to a single point on Friday after a dramatic 2-1 victory over Celta Vigo, but Barcelona responded with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Athletic Club on Saturday.

Yamal scored the game's only goal after receiving a superb pass from Pedri on the right flank, re-establishing Barcelona's four-point lead at the top of the league table with only 11 matches left to play.

Oshoala's social media jab

Following the crucial win, Asisat Oshoala, a former star of Barcelona Femení, took to social media to poke fun at the club's arch-rivals, Real Madrid. 

Asisat Oshoala did not enjoy what she saw from LeBron and Lakers.

Oshoala, who enjoyed a highly successful career with Barcelona, winning multiple league and Champions League titles before her departure in 2024, remains a passionate supporter of the Catalan club.

She posted a popular meme on X (formerly Twitter) that depicted a figure with a Barcelona crest embracing another representing the La Liga trophy. In the background, a dejected character with a Real Madrid logo looks on forlornly.

Widely considered one of Africa's greatest-ever footballers, Oshoala holds a record six CAF Women's Player of the Year awards. 

Though she now plays elsewhere, her post shows her allegiance remains with her former team as they pursue another domestic title.
