Summary

Lamine Yamal became the youngest player in football history to win both the UEFA European Championship and the FIFA World Cup

Spain secured its second World Cup title with a 1-0 extra-time victory over defending champions Argentina

The 19-year-old winger maintains an undefeated record across 28 competitive matches with the Spanish national team

The Spanish Football Federation and teenage star Lamine Yamal have achieved international football history following Spain‘s triumph at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The 19-year-old winger officially became the youngest player ever to win both the UEFA European Championship and the FIFA World Cup.

Yamal completed the historic international double at just 19 years and six days old, capturing both prestigious trophies on his first attempt before turning 20. Following his breakout performance at Euro 2024 at age 17, the Barcelona prodigy anchored Spain’s attack throughout the 2026 World Cup campaign, culminating in La Roja’s 1-0 extra-time victory against defending champions Argentina at New York New Jersey Stadium.

The final highlighted Yamal’s composure as he became the third-youngest player to feature in a World Cup final, behind legends Pelé and Giuseppe Bergomi. Beyond the silverware, Spain remains undefeated in all 28 competitive matches featuring Yamal, with the winger winning all 13 of his starts at major international tournaments.
