Injury Scare For Lamine Yamal Ahead Of FIFA World Cup 2026 Final

Spain were dealt a massive blow just ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026 final against Argentina as Lamine Yamal did not practice with the main group on Friday and was seen with heavy strapping on his left thigh. Spain started their preparations for the summit clash days after their semifinal win over France, but the Barcelona winger did not take part in the main session. According to reports, both Yamal and Pedro Porro trained lightly away from the group. Yamal suffered a heavy blow after he was brought down in the penalty box by Lucas Digne in the 22nd minute, resulting in the spot-kick that was converted by Mikel Oyarzabal. While the youngster played the entire game, reports claimed that his pain intensified afterward and was treated by Spain's medical staff at the team hotel in Dallas. However, it seems unlikely that the injury will prevent him from playing, as the teenager is still expected to feature in the final against Argentina.
