Hey there, football fans! ⚽️ Have you heard about the epic match between Spain and France in the UEFA Nations League semifinal? It was a real nail-biter! Let’s dive into the action.
Spain’s 17-year-old sensation, Lamine Yamal, stole the show by scoring two amazing goals! 🎯 He helped Spain win a thrilling 5-4 victory over France. Can you imagine scoring twice in such an important game at just 17?
The match started with Nico Williams scoring in the 22nd minute after a clever pass from Yamal. Then, just three minutes later, Mikel Merino made it 2-0 for Spain! The Spanish team was on fire! 🔥
In the second half, Yamal was fouled in the box, and he took the penalty himself, coolly scoring to make it 3-0. He didn’t stop there! Pedri added another goal, making it 4-0. Spain was dominating!
France’s star, Kylian Mbappé, scored a penalty to make it 4-1, but Yamal responded quickly with his second goal, pushing Spain ahead 5-1. The game seemed over, right?
But France didn’t give up! They scored three more goals, including one from substitute Rayan Cherki and an unfortunate own goal by Spain’s Daniel Vivian. Suddenly, the score was 5-4! 😮
In the end, Spain held on to win the game. “It was a great game. In the end, it was a little close, but we played very well, and I think we deserved to win,” Yamal said after the match.
Now, Spain will face Portugal in the final on Sunday. We can’t wait to see what happens next! Who do you think will win? 🏆
