Barcelona’s Yamal and Lewandowski out due to injuries

BARCELONA, Spain — There was more bad news for Barcelona a day after its second Spanish league loss, with the club saying Lamine Yamal and Robert Lewandowski are sidelined by injuries. Many of the goals came with help from 17-year-old Yamal, one of Barcelona’s most dangerous forwards in an attack that has outscored opponents 40-12 in La Liga and 15-5 in the Champions League. Barcelona lost at Real Sociedad 1-0 in La Liga on Sunday, ending the team’s seven-game winning streak across all competitions. Yamal’s right ankle injury came last week in the 5-2 win at Red Star in the Champions League.
