Yamal: 'We are European champions, we fear no one'

Tensions are rising ahead of the World Cup semi-final clash between Spain and France. Spain's 19-year-old rising star Lamine Yamal painted a confident picture ahead of the match against France, stating that they do not care about their opponents' words.

Spain, who defeated France in the previous European Championship (Euro), will take to the pitch with the confidence of that victory. Yamal, whose performance in the tournament has been subject to criticism, argued that he has only scored one goal in six matches but is not under pressure, and that his team has matured.

Stating that he has no anxiety about scoring in this match, which he described as the most important game of his career, Yamal defined being a goalscorer in big matches as a special feeling. He added to his words that they believe Spain can win the championship, just as they did in the 2010 World Cup.
