Scored first World Cup goal at 18! Spain's €200 million prodigy sets five major records, surpassing Messi and matching Pelé

On June 22, Beijing time, the second round of Group H of the World Cup began, with Spain playing against Saudi Arabia. Only 11 minutes into the match, 18-year-old Yamal scored his debut World Cup goal.

In this match, Yamal, worth €200 million, made his first World Cup start. He scored his first goal just 11 minutes into the game.

After receiving a cross from Oyarzabal, he slid in at the far post to score, breaking the deadlock and steadying the team. Following the goal, Yamal knelt down emotionally and kissed the pitch.

This goal helped Yamal set multiple records. First, it was his first World Cup goal at just 18 years old, which is 14 days younger than Messi's age (18 years, 357 days) when he scored his first World Cup goal.

Second, at 18 years and 343 days, he became the second youngest Spanish player to score in a World Cup, behind only his teammate Gavi.

Third, Yamal became the eighth youngest scorer in World Cup history,surpassing Messi exactly 20 years ago and pushing him to ninth place on the list.

Fourth, Yamal's goal ended Spain's embarrassing streak of 299 minutes without a goal in the World Cup.

Fifth,Yamal is the second player aged 18 or under in World Cup history to open the scoring for his team in a match, with the other being the legendary Pelé..

What is frightening is that Yamal is only 18. If he develops smoothly, he could also participate in six World Cups like Messi. Perhaps countless more records await Yamal to break in the future.
