The brilliance of young talent Lamine Yamal helped the Spanish team successfully reverse the situation, thereby registering their name in the final of Euro 2024.

Spanish Courage

Having to face the French team with the best defense at this Euro and falling behind in the 9th minute, coach Luis de la Fuente's team still showed their mettle by quickly completing a comeback in the first half.

Two goals from Lamine Yamal and Dani Olmo made Randal Kolo Muani's opening goal meaningless. With this victory, the Spanish team has booked their place in the final. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappe and his teammates once again missed the Euro championship.

History of the name Lamine Yamal

At 16 years and 362 days old, Lamine Yamal has become the youngest player to score at the Euro finals. This is a worthy achievement for the Barcelona player after his impressive performances at this year's tournament.

Previously, Lamine Yamal also became the youngest player to play and score for FC Barcelona and the Spanish National Team. Or recently, he was the youngest player to assist in the Euro finals when he created conditions for Dani Carvajal in the opening match against the Croatian National Team. It can be said that with his outstanding talent, many records are waiting for Lamine Yamal to break.

In addition, the goal scored by Lamine Yamal against the French team will also be one of the strong candidates for the most beautiful goal of the tournament. And more importantly, this goal helped the Spanish team come back against the French team, thereby putting their name in the final.

The Right Choice of Luis de la Fuente

The Spanish press has spent a lot of ink when Jesús Navas was chosen by Luis de la Fuente instead of Lucas Vázquez in the list of players attending this Euro.

But the performance of veteran Jesús Navas showed the rightness of Luis de la Fuente. Moving smoothly up and down the pitch, the Sevilla player helped the right wing of the Spanish team operate smoothly.

In addition to Jesus Navas, coach Luis de la Fuente also made reasonable substitutions in the second half of the match when he pulled Nacho out to play right-back and sent Mikel Merino onto the field to strengthen the midfield. This helped the Spanish team successfully defend their 2-1 victory.

Didier Deschamps makes a terrible substitution

Of the four substitutions made by coach Didier Deschamps, only Bradley Barcola played a decent role. The rest, Antoine Griezmann, Eduardo Camavinga and Olivier Giroud failed to meet the requirements in the minutes they were on the pitch, contributing to the French team's inability to score an equalizer.

Besides, the withdrawal of Adrien Rabiot from the field is also a puzzling decision of coach Didier Deschamps. Because the midfielder wearing the number 14 shirt is the best player in the midfield of the French team. It can be said that coach Didier Deschamps lost the battle of wits with his colleague on the other side of the front line, causing the French team to miss the Euro championship this time.
