Lamine Yamal has sent a clear message to football’s giants at the World Cup. After scoring against Saudi Arabia, the 18-year-old said Spain aren’t here to admire the tournament but to win it. His goal made him the eighth-youngest scorer in World Cup history, moving him ahead of Lionel Messi in age rankings and into elite company alongside Pelé and Spain’s Gavi. Yamal believes the shock draw in their opener taught Spain a lesson. Now, he says, the team is firing on all cylinders and ready to challenge favourites like Argentina, France, England and beyond.
