Invincible Fleet' All-time impressions appeared at the Spanish national soccer team's Euro 2024 victory celebration.
On the 16th, the sports broadcaster 『ESPN" introduced the remarks made by Spanish captain Alvaro Morata (Atletico Madrid) in front of the crowd who came to celebrate the victory in Spain's championship celebration.
Holding the microphone, Morata said this with his hand on one shoulder of the '17 Specials'Ramin Yamal (Barcelona) next to him.
"17 years old, huh! I can't believe it. His teacher wouldn't believe it either. This little guy threw a paper ball and played in class. The guy who was messing around in class played with the Euros!"
Morata then said let's celebrate Yamal's high school graduation together. Yamal passed the test during the Euro 2024 tournament and reached the graduation mark. They can also be seen doing homework in their accommodation ahead of the finals.
Morata made no secret of his affection for the supernova, which will be responsible for Spain's future, saying, `I will love Yamal every day.' Yamal extended his arms wide to respond to the cheers of the crowd.

Yamal won the Young Player Award for his amazing performance with one goal and four assists in this tournament. He broke almost all records related to age, including the youngest participation and the youngest score.
In the final match against England held at Olympiastadion in Berlin, Germany on the 15th, he assisted Niko Williams (Atlantic) in the first goal in the second minute of the second half.
Spain equalized Cole Palmer (Chelsea) in the 28th minute of the second half and won 2-1 with Mikel Oyarsabal (Real Sociedad) in the 41st minute to win Europe for the first time in 12 years since Euro 2012.
Yamal, who is considered to be the "Messi's Second Coming", has made his wish to face Barcelona senior Lionel Messi (Inter Miami) in Pinalisima.
On the same day, Argentina, led by Messi, beat Colombia and won the Copa America in 2024.

As a result, Spain and Argentina will face off during the A-match period next year. It is the first meeting between Yamal, who just came to mind, and Messi, who is about to retire.
Meanwhile, Spanish fans shouted `Rodri, Ballon d'Or' at the victory celebration and wished for Rodri (Man City) to win the Ballon d'Or, who was named the tournament's most valuable player.
However, Hosselu (Al-Garapa) was seen pointing his finger at Dani Carvajal (Real Madrid). Carvajal, who collaborated for a double at Real last season, is also interpreted as being eligible for the Ballon d'Or award.
