Dutch player Frenkie de Jong, from Barcelona, spoke in statements reported by the media following the end of El Clasico against Real Madrid, commenting on the events that occurred in the final minutes of the match.

De Jong said: "I didn't see exactly what happened, I was on the bench and saw a group of people. When the referee blew the final whistle, I saw some Real Madrid players heading towards Lamine Yamal. It seemed a bit exaggerated, and you should ask them about the reason."

He also spoke about Barcelona's performance during the match, explaining: "In the first half, we were not good with the ball, and Real Madrid caused us damage through their attacking players. In the second half, we lacked creating danger and clear chances."

De Jong also commented on the controversy surrounding his teammate Lamine Yamal's statements, saying: "You can talk to him privately. Expressing with gestures on the pitch is just a repetition of the same things. If you are a teammate and think he shouldn't say something specific, you can talk to him privately. Lamine didn't say that Real Madrid is stealing, and I didn't hear him say that."
