BTW, all these discussions just comes to show how much of a team effort and tournament this was for Spain... amazing job by de la Fuente, everyone knew their job and stick to it, there was no star player in this team, but as a whole they performed great

Yes they have quality players, but more importantly they are a cohesive team.

A few days ago, Lamine Yamal said: ‘I hope Messi wins the Copa América and I win the Euro Cup, so we can play against each other in the Finalissima."

Nobody has set up more goals in a single European Championship since records began in 1980.
And nobody has ever been directly involved in goals in a quarter-final, semi-final and final before Yamal achieved the feat.
Before turning 17, Yamal had played 51 times for Barcelona, scoring seven goals and setting up another seven.
For Spain he now has 14 appearances, three goals and seven assists.
By comparison, neither Argentina's Messi nor Portugal's Ronaldo - the two greatest players of this generation - had played a single first-team game for club or country when they were 16.
And when we look at the players expected to replace Messi and Ronaldo as Ballon d'Or rivals in the future - France's Kylian Mbappe and Norway's Erling Haaland - their stats at this age cannot compare to Yamal either.
Mbappe had played four games for Monaco, making one assist before turning 17, while Haaland had played 23 times in Norway for second-tier Bryne and top-flight Molde, scoring once.
Even one of the most famous players to make their breakthrough at 16, Wayne Rooney, had only played 10 times for Everton and scored three goals before reaching 17.

I wonder how he feels about all this attention.
What his mentality is like. He is on the start of an epic journey. Like other young players, do they feel excited, nervous? Do they have any fear about their careers not panning out as they hope, or does the exuberance and innocence of youth mean they just love playing the game?

He's brilliant but headlines like 'Maradona, Messi, now Yamal' are putting too much pressure on him, lol.
The boy just turned 17 on Saturday.

Adidas with the goat and baby goat ad, marketing gold.
If Messi was still at Barcelona and we were sponsored by Adidas or both were with Nike, we would be printing money over the next 12-24 months, being us back to 1:1 with ease.
We should low key try to convince yamal to sign for nike.
