13:00 CET - Good afternoon and welcome to what feels like a big day at the 2026 World Cup. It is a day when European stars take centre stage and the question is posed to Lamine Yamal: Can he join fellow superstars Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland by taking this tournament by storm and delivering on the world stage?
We will find out during the 90 minutes or longer of Spain vs Austria, after a long wait for day 22 to get underway. If Lamine does deliver or not, however, a day when Spain and Portugal are both in World Cup action is a good one and one to look forward to tremendously.
