Alcaraz and Yamal Pose Together Holding World Cup Trophy After Spain's 2026 Final Victory
In the 2026 FIFA World Cup final, Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 with an extra-time goal by Ferran Torres, winning the World Cup for the first time in 16 years. After the match, Spanish tennis star Carlos Alcaraz posed for a photo with footballer Lamine Yamal, both holding the trophy. Notably, Yamal won his first World Cup at age 19, while Alcaraz won his first Grand Slam singles title at the 2022 US Open also at age 19. Statistics show Yamal has won 8 titles in three years since his debut, missing only the Champions League. Alcaraz has won 7 Grand Slam singles titles since turning professional in 2020, needing only an Olympic singles gold medal to complete the Golden Slam.
