Against Mallorca, Barcelona had 40 shots in the whole match, a record number in a La Liga match in the past 15 years. The xG (expected goals) was up to 3.41. The number of shots of the home team was 10 times higher than the opponent Mallorca (4 shots).

However, the quality of Barcelona's shots was not high, with only 13 shots on target and 1 goal scored by Dani Olmo.

Sofascore also points out that Barcelona are the first team to have 40 shots in a match in Europe's top five leagues in the last three years.

Coach Hansi Flick made a series of notable changes in the match against Mallorca, when the attacking quartet in this match included Olmo, Lamine Yamal, Ansu Fati and Ferran Torres. Of these, Yamal was still the most outstanding individual. He launched 4 shots on target and created 3 scoring chances for his teammates.

In the second half, coach Flick sent Raphinha on to replace Fati, who was not playing effectively. However, the Brazilian striker did not explode as usual. He did not have any dangerous shots on Mallorca's goal.

The narrow win over Mallorca helped Barcelona create a 7-point gap with Real Madrid, but they have played 1 more game. Real will visit Getafe in the early morning of April 24.

Yamal caused a stir again on the day Barcelona defeated Atletico Madrid. In the early morning of April 3, Yamal helped Barca defeat Atletico Madrid 1-0 in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final, after a 4-4 draw in the first leg.
