Lamine Yamal Scores as Girlfriend Ines Garcia Stuns

Lamine Yamal scored his first World Cup goal during Spain's last group-stage game against Saudi Arabia on June 26.

What happened?

He will look to add to that goal tally when his squad faces Uruguay.

His girlfriend, model and influencer Ines Garcia, drew attention before the match with a post on her Instagram Story.

The photo showed her wearing Yamal's Spain jersey with no pants on beneath it.

Why it matters for Lamine Yamal

The photo was captioned, “Este partido desde casa,” indicating she would watch the game from home.

Yamal, 18, and Garcia made their relationship official earlier this year.

What comes next?

Garcia has been seen at several of Yamal's matches, including his first two World Cup contests.

She didn't indicate why she had to return home before Yamal's final group-stage game.

Perhaps she has modeling engagements or other career aspects to attend to.

It will be interesting to see whether Garcia returns to Yamal's World Cup games as the tournament progresses.

Spain is expected to make a deep run in the tournament.
