Yamal could be ready for Spain's World Cup opener

According to De la Fuente, Yamal's hamstring injury is almost healed, though he won't play in Thursday's match against Iraq. The coach said barring any changes, Yamal could be ready for the Cape Verde match, but it doesn't guarantee he'll play - it might be just some minutes or training to get match fit for subsequent games. sportbet.reviews

Yamal suffered the injury while taking a penalty for Barcelona on April 22. As recently as this week, the 18-year-old expressed fear of missing the World Cup and prayed to get fit in time.
