In the final match of the biggest stage in football history i.e. FIFA World Cup 2026, Spain won the title by defeating Argentina 1-0. As soon as this great match ends, such a video and pictures are becoming increasingly viral on social media, which the whole world is surprised to see. This viral clip is of Argentina’s great player Lionel Messi and Spain’s 19-year-old sensation Lamin Yamal, whose connection is almost 19 years old. Fans on the internet are calling this coincidence the most magical moment in the history of football.
When 20 year old Messi bathed 6 month old Yamal
Actually, this whole matter is of a charity photoshoot of the year 2007, which was jointly organized by the Spanish newspaper ‘Diario Sport’ and UNICEF. Lamin Yamal’s family won a lucky draw for this photoshoot. During this shoot, which took place in the dressing room of Barcelona’s Camp Nou stadium, 20-year-old rising star Lionel Messi bathed 6-month-old baby Lamin Yamal in his lap in a plastic blue bathtub. At that time, Messi was very shy and he had no idea that the child he was holding in his lap would one day stand in front of him as his biggest rival.
‘Child’ wins in unique battle between Guru and disciple
See the cycle of time that the same child whom Messi had given a ‘blessing’ bath with his hands 19 years ago, the same Lamin Yamal came to play against 39-year-old Lionel Messi for Spain in the final of the FIFA World Cup 2026. Yamal is being considered as Messi’s heir apparent in the football world today. This match between these two legends who came out of Barcelona’s La Masia Academy was very emotional, where ultimately Yamal’s Spanish team snatched the last World Cup trophy of Messi’s career from Argentina.
Flood of memes and videos on social media
After this historic defeat of Argentina, many funny reels and edited videos are trending rapidly on the internet, reminiscing the memories of this bathtub photoshoot. Fans are jokingly writing that “The child whom Messi Bhai himself bathed has now grown up and plays the game!” Yamal’s father also shared this picture on Instagram some time ago and wrote, “The beginning of two legends.” At present this video has become the talk of the town among football lovers.
