British media Sports Bible released a video of Yamal's replacement reaction. He made his feelings clear, he reported.
Yamal started on the day. He was replaced by Jeremie Pinault at the start of the second half of extra time when the game was tight at 2-2. Spanish media Marca released a video of Yamal's replacement. Yamal, in the video, threw the water bottle he was holding in frustration. After the game, coach Luis de la Fuente said "We wanted to give the game a little more life. He demanded energy, control, finishing and shooting from the replaced players. Yamal is in a tired situation. There was hardly any rest. He had a very difficult year. We replaced him and gave another player a chance. He is 17 years old. We must act accordingly."
Yamal has been playing for Spain's A team since 2023. He also recorded Spain's youngest A-match appearance and score (16 years and 57 days) and the youngest Euros appearance (16 years and 338 days).
He is also active in his team. He is a former FC Barcelona youth and made his debut in the FC Barcelona first team in April 2023. He played in the Spanish Primera Liga at the age of 15 years and 290 days, the youngest record in the club's history. From the 2023-2024 season, he played as a main player. He has set a new record for the youngest starting player (16 years and 38 days) and scoring goals (16 years and 87 days) in the Primera Liga. This season, he scored 18 goals in 55 official games, including nine in 35 league games. He took the lead in winning the FC Barcelona League, the King's Cup (Copa del Rey), and the Spanish Super Cup.
