At dawn on Saturday (9), Group A of the UEFA Europa League saw a one-sided match, with Spain defeating Georgia by a huge 7-1 margin away from home. The 16-year-old striker Yemma not only scored a goal, but also became the youngest goal scorer of the European national team in 117 years with the youngest age and the youngest goal scorer in the history of the "Bullfighters", and this talented youngster, who is known as "the new Mies", may be the future of the "new Mies". This talented youngster, known as the "new Mez", may become a new generation of king of the ball in the future.
The difference between the two sides was clear from the start of the match. Spain took a 4-0 lead after just 40 minutes in the first half thanks to a double from Evalu Morada and a goal from Daniel Omo, plus an ouchie from Georgian center Solomon Caviviglia. It was also the first time since November 2019 against Romania that Spain had scored four goals in the first half in almost four years.
With the game clearing up, Spain manager Fouandi made two substitutions at halftime, including replacing Daniel Omo with first-time Barcelona star Yemma. This made Yemma the youngest player to appear in the history of the Spanish national team at 16 years and 57 days, breaking the record of 17 years and 62 days set by Barcelona teammate Gavi in 2021.
On the changeover, Georgia pulled a goal back, but Spain quickly extended their lead, with Ewalu Morada scoring again to complete his hat-trick. Substitute Nicolas Williams also scored a goal and then assisted Yemma to make it 7-1 and make new history.
Yemma not only became Spain's youngest ever player to start and score a goal, he also became the youngest goal scorer in the 117-year history of the European national team, behind Northern Ireland's John Stone (15 years and 160 days) in 1882 and Hungary's Herve Hervé (16 years and 12 days) in 1906, and overtook retired Welsh star Gareth Barry as the youngest-ever UEFA Europa League qualifier. goal scorer.
Yema, who comes from Barcelona's youth training system, made his first appearance on behalf of Barcelona's first team in April this year, and had a stunning performance. He has quickly become a mainstay of the season, and has started the last three La Liga matches, which is quite similar to that year's shadow of the first emergence of the Mets, and has been favored to be expected to become a future king of the ball.
