Spain’s 17-year-old star, Lamine Yamal, is ready to face Cristiano Ronaldo in the UEFA Nations League final. After scoring twice and winning Man of the Match in Spain’s 5-4 win over France, Yamal said, “This is the kind of game I want to play, to prove who I am.”
Cristiano Ronaldo, 40, continues to impress as he leads Portugal into another major final. Spain’s coach, Luis de la Fuente, praised Ronaldo’s fitness and leadership, calling the final “a battle between two football generations.”
Spain is chasing a third straight UEFA title after winning the last Nations League and Euro 2024. But Portugal is just as hungry for glory, with the stage now set for a clash between youth and experience.
