(a day ago)Lamine Yamal has discovered the emotional conversation she had with Lionel Messin after the World Cup final, where Spain defeated Argentina 1:0 after the sequel and was proclaimed world champion.
After the match ended, while there were tensions between footballers of both teams, Lionel Messi stayed away from the incidents and approached the Spanish talent to embrace him.
Yamal indicated that it had a special meaning for him, since he considers Messin to be the greatest football player in history.
He's the biggest player in history and someone I've always admired. After the match, I wanted to show my respect”, Yamal said.
The Spanish talent also discovered the message he received from Mess, which he claims will be remembered throughout his career.
“told me to continue my path and that the future belongs to our generation. Those words are worth as much as the gold medal on my neck”, Yamal indicated.
The 19-year-old acknowledged that he still has difficulty believing his achievements at such a young age.
“If someone had told me a few years ago that I would win the World Cup playing against Lionel Messy, I would have thought he was crazy”, he said.
Spain secured the trophy thanks to Ferran Torres' goal in the 106th minute, while Argentina, champion in power, failed to register a single blow in the cadres during 120 minutes of play.
