Lamine Yamal had just finished his match with the Spanish national team when Elena Durán, a DAZN reporter, suggested something different from the usual interview.
A game of rock, paper, scissors. The winner could ask the other person a question. And the footballer won.
What seemed like a lighthearted, charming moment on the sidelines changed tone when the video reached social media. There, half the world saw something more than a game: glances, smiles and, according to users, unmistakable flirting.
“I don’t know if Inés García will be very happy after seeing this”, one person wrote. “Someone’s going to sleep on the couch”, another chimed in, and the thread filled with jokes.
All over a game that lasted seconds. A camera rolling, a Barcelona star and a partner mentioned in every comment. Just friendliness or something more?
