Lamine Yamal's first goal for Spain at the 2026 World Cup

 Lamine Yamal, Barcelona's young phenom, scored his first World Cup goal, opening the scoring for Spain against Saudi Arabia in Atlanta. Mikel Oyarzabal led the action on the left side after receiving the ball from the Saudis and passed low through the penalty area to Yamal, who passed the ball into the goal from close range. It is also Spain's first goal of the tournament, after La Roja failed to score in the match against Cape Verde, which was one of the biggest surprises of the early stage of the tournament, although undesirable for Spain. Yamal, who will turn 19 during the tournament, already has a European title to his name after scoring against France at EURO 2024. He won La Liga three times with Barcelona, ​​also won the King's Cup and finished second in the Ballon d'Or poll in 2025. --- ## Related Articles 1.
