Spain star, Lamine Yamal

An attempted burglary at the home of Spanish teenage sensation Lamine Yamal was foiled just hours after he helped Spain book only the second FIFA World Cup final appearance in the nation’s history.
Yamal, 19, played the full game as Spain beat France 2-0 in their semi-final in Dallas on Tuesday, and Catalan news outlet La Vanguardia reported that early on Wednesday morning two masked individuals tried to enter his property.
 
La Vanguardia reported the individuals were spotted perched on a wall of the property by private security guards, and that they fled when challenged by the guards, who then notified local police.
 
“There was an attempted” burglary “at a home in Esplugues de Llobregat” in Barcelona’s outskirts, a spokesperson for Catalan regional police told AFP.
 
The newspaper said Yamal’s house is well known because it once belonged to Barcelona football great Gerard Piqué and his ex-partner, Colombian music star Shakira, when they lived together in the Catalan capital.
 
Wednesday’s incident occurred early in the morning, moments after Spain completed their 2-0 victory over France in Texas to qualify for the World Cup final.
 
Yamal won a first-half penalty that Mikel Oyarzabal converted to open the scoring. He also had a goal disallowed in the second half for offside.
