16-year-old Lamine Yamal has taken Euro 2024 by storm.

With one goal and three assists, Yamal has helped Spain reach the Euro 2024 final.

However, if the final vs England reaches extra-time or penalties, the Barcelona winger may not be able to feature.

This is due to the Labour Law in host nation Germany, which states that no person below the age of 18 is allowed to "work" beyond 8 PM local time.

Athletes can play until 11 PM local time (2:30 AM IST), but even that limit will be crossed in the game goes to extra-time and penalties.

If Yamal plays beyond 11 PM, the Royal Spanish Football Federation will have to pay a fine of 30,000 euros (27 lakh rupees!)

Yamal has been substituted in four of the five matches he has started so far in Euro 2024.

Yamal is one of the favourites to win Euro 2024 'Player of the Tournament'
