Michel said afterwards: "Lamine is someone who makes a difference.

"In my opinion, he is already one of the best players in the world at the age of 17.

"It is difficult to imagine that after Messi, someone else will come like him, but I hope that Lamine continues to develop, because he is a player who can reach that level."
