Germany – The young Spanish star, Lamine Yamal, a player for the Spanish national team and Barcelona, achieved a historic number in his country’s match against Georgia in the round of 16 of the European Nations Cup, on Sunday evening.
Spain won against Georgia 4-1 in the match that brought the two teams together at the RheinEnergieStadion.
With this result, the Spanish national team officially qualified for the round of 16 of the European Nations Cup “Euro 2024”, while the Georgian national team bid farewell to the continental tournament.
Yamal made a fantastic assist in the 51st minute, while executing a free kick, sending a perfect cross to Fabian Ruiz who headed the ball into the net, announcing the Matador’s second goal.
Spain and Barcelona star Lamine Yamal has become the youngest player in history to provide an assist in the knockout stage of the European Championship at the age of 16 years and 353 days.
Lamine Yamal, the star of the Spanish national team and Barcelona, was the youngest player in history to provide an assist in the group stage of the European Nations Cup.
Coach De La Fuente responded to German reports that revealed the German law, which prevents Lamine Yamal from participating in the Georgia match.
According to German law on child protection, people under the age of 18, whether foreigners or citizens, are not allowed to work after 8 p.m., for their safety and to prevent any attempt to exploit them.
Despite the possibility of imposing a penalty on the Spanish Federation, with a fine of 30 thousand euros, if Yamal played the full 90 minutes against Georgia, the Spanish coach did not pay attention to that law, and pushed his young player, who will celebrate his 17th birthday in two weeks, to participate in all the minutes of the match.
De la Fuente sent an indirect message to the German team, which Spain will face in the quarter-finals next Friday, that this law will be ignored.
