Lamine demonstratively left the pitch without acknowledging the supporters to thank them for their backing, and his facial expression left no doubt that he found the chants from Spain’s fans unacceptable.

During the match, “La Roja” supporters began chanting the provocative slogan “whoever doesn't jump is a Muslim,” which deeply hurt all Muslims present, and especially Yamal himself.

Lamine has previously spoken openly about his Muslim faith and observed the holy month of Ramadan.
