The Spanish star Lamine Yamal, FC Barcelona player, was exposed to an embarrassing situation during the Ballon d'Or awards ceremony, in which he won the Kopa Trophy for the best young player in the world. The 17-year-old Barcelona star, a Spaniard of Moroccan origin, was crowned the best young player under 21 years old, and after receiving the award, he stood on the platform to make some statements, but after a few moments, a technical problem occurred in the translation earpiece in his ear.
When African football legend Didier Drogba asked him if he could repeat what Messi did, and break the phenomenon's record as the youngest to win the Golden Ball, the Barcelona star stuttered and could not answer.
The Dutch football legend Ruud Gullit immediately went to Yamal to help him and answer some questions on his behalf, where he praised his level last season and the Euro, and talked about how shy he was.
Yamal led the Spanish national team to win the 2024 European Nations Cup in France, after defeating the English national team 2-1 in the final match, and he also became the youngest player to participate in the tournament.
In addition, Yamal played an important role in Barcelona's qualification for the Champions League this season, after the team's performance declined in the second half of the season under the leadership of Xavi Hernandez.
Lamine Yamal was also crowned the best young player in the last Euro Championship.
Yamal scored 7 goals and made 9 assists in 50 official matches with Barcelona, in various competitions last season, and he also scored a goal and provided 4 assists to his teammates in the Spanish national team, in the European Nations Cup "Euro 2024".
