Two teams. Two different playing styles. Two contradictory routes to the Euro 2024 final. Two contrasting records in summit clashes of the European Championships. But, Spain and England have one factor in common - a teenage sensation tearing it apart on the pitch.
Lamine Yamal and Kobbie Mainoo cannot be more different. Yamal forces everyone to sit up and notice. His quick dribbles, the drop of the shoulder and the ability to send the defenders into a spin bring people to the edge of their seats.
Mainoo, on the other hand, is more blink-and-miss. One look at the screen and you wouldn’t see why he’s so hyped. But, his ability to receive passes in a crowded midfield, drive forward and create chances, without being flustered in the slightest, sets him apart from the rest.
