Yamal Is a Phenomenon, but He Needs to Be Left Alone: Ronaldo

Portugal striker Cristiano Ronaldo shared his opinion about the young striker of the Spanish national team Lamine Yamal after the final of the Nations League, in which Portugal defeated Spain (2:2, 5:3 - penalty shootout).

According to the Portuguese, Yamal is a talented player with great potential and a bright future.

Cristiano Ronaldo quoted by Mundo Deportivo
He will win many titles both with a team and individually. He is only 17 years old... I repeat, he has great potential to grow. He is a phenomenon, but he needs to be left alone now. I ask for that. He has a long career ahead of him and he will probably win the Nations League several times.

Ronaldo scored a goal in the final, but was forced to leave the field in the 88th minute due to injury.

This victory became the second for the Portuguese national team - they won the first one in 2019. For Spain, on the other hand, this is the second defeat in the final of the Nations League out of three attempts.
