There was no more devoted supporter of the Spanish National Team than Inés García.
Lamine Yamal’s girlfriend followed every one of the eight matches that ‘La Roja’ played at the FIFA World Cup 2026, right up to their victory in the final against Argentina. Over the course of more than a month, Inés became a pillar of strength for the player wearing number 19, along with his family: Yamal’s inseparable mom, Sheila Ebana, and his little brother Keyne. On social media, Inés shared a heartfelt message next to a photo with the young star, where she’s seen holding the World Cup trophy.

The young content creator made her way onto the field at MetLife Stadium and celebrated Spain’s win with her boyfriend. On her social channels, Inés posted a keepsake photo in which she’s sitting with Lamine, holding the FIFA World Cup 2026 Trophy.
Alongside the image, Inés wrote: “You did it. Congratulations, my love, you’re a world champion 🤎.” Inés reposted the photo on her stories and added: “Happy ending.”

Back on July 9, when Spain was about to face Belgium for a spot in the 2026 World Cup semifinals, FIFA announced that Justin Bieber would perform at the tournament’s halftime show in the final. Thrilled, like any true Belieber, Inés asked her boyfriend to do whatever it took to reach the final, since she didn’t want to miss the Canadian artist’s performance.

Spain not only defeated Belgium, they went on to beat France and earned their place in the final against Argentina. On Sunday, July 19, ‘La Roja’ defeated the Argentinians 1–0 with a goal from Ferrán Torres. With that, they were crowned world champions and brought home their country’s second World Cup trophy.
