Super Falcons striker Asisat Oshoala has praised Yamine Lamal’s stunning goal for Spain in their 2024 Euro Championships semifinal win against France,
Spain
and Germany met in the semifinal of the 2024 Euros on Wednesday at the Allianz
Arena in Munich. Both teams were balanced on paper, but it was sure to be an
interesting encounter.
Spains
wingers Yamine Lamal and Nico Williams have dominated the headlines so far at
the Euros because of their brilliance and potential. And they were expected to
show that again and Le Bleus.
France
started the game well, and they were rewarded with a goal in the 9th minute,
courtesy of Randal Kolo Muani, who converted a header in the box. However,
France took their feet off the pedal after they scored, allowing Spain into the
game.
The
Spaniards got the equalizer in the 21st minute via Lamal, and it was a classic
finish. Lamal cut in from the right of the pitch, displaced Adrien Rabiot and
Lucas Hernandez, and sent a wicked curler that hit the upright and went into
the net.
That
goal set the football world agog, and Super Falcons star Oshoala joined in
praising Yamal. On her X page, she wrote, “YAMAAALLLLL ….this kid is special”.
