“Barcelona” star Lamine Yamal contributed to Spain’s big victory over Austria (3-0) in the 32nd round of the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Thursday evening at the Los Angeles Stadium.
Spain maintained their perfect record at major tournaments when Yamal started as they claimed their ninth win in nine matches the player had started since making his international debut at the World and European Cup of Nations.

The 18-year-old Spanish winger also made a historic record during the confrontation with Austria.
He became the youngest player, since this statistic began to be recorded in 1966, to touch the ball 10 or more times in the opponent’s penalty area (14 touches), while making 10 or more successful dribbles in a World Cup game (10).
Mikel Oyarzabal opened the scoring for Spain against Austria in the 36th minute, before Pedro Porro added a second goal in the 66th minute, then Oyarzabal returned to complete the hat-trick with his second personal goal in the 89th minute.
The Matadors will play the winners of Portugal and Croatia in the round of 16 later on Friday morning, Arabic time.
