The young talent from Barcelona has once again showcased his skills for Spain in their Round of 16 clash against Georgia.
Despite falling behind in the match, the Spanish team has managed to stage a comeback, largely due to Yamal’s exceptional performance. Age seems to be just a number for the winger, who is effectively orchestrating plays for his teammates.
With a perfectly executed cross that found Fabián Ruiz at the far post, Yamal played a crucial role in Spain’s 2-1 lead. Not only did he provide an assist on the night he became the youngest player to feature in a UEFA Euro knockout stage game, but his performance continues to impress.

Yamal now boasts two assists in EURO 2024, more than any other player in the tournament. Furthermore, he has become the first teenager to assist multiple goals since Cristiano Ronaldo achieved the feat 20 years ago.
