Spain's Yamal: 'France Should Fear Us'
11 Jul
Summary
- Teen sensation Yamal believes Spain can defeat France.
- Spain beat France in recent European Championship and Nations League.
- Spain is on an unbeaten run of 37 competitive matches.
Teenage sensation Lamine Yamal believes Spain should be feared by France as the two European giants prepare for a World Cup semifinal showdown on Tuesday. Yamal's confidence stems from Spain's prior victories over France in the 2024 European Championship semifinals and last year's Nations League competition.
Spain secured their first semifinal berth since 2010 by defeating Belgium 2-1, with a late goal from substitute Mikel Merino in the 88th minute. Spain's current team boasts an impressive unbeaten record of 37 consecutive competitive matches dating back to March 2023.
The matchup is set to take place at the Dallas Cowboys' home stadium. France has reached the last two World Cup finals, winning in 2018, while Spain's sole World Cup final appearance was in 2010. Yamal, despite being one of the youngest players, has been a notable presence with his playmaking abilities.
