Yamal's girlfriend, a 20-year-old Spanish 'saint' watching the match from the stands, cheered passionately. It may be because they could see BTS and Justin Bieber.

Britain's 'The Sun' reported on the 15th (Korea time) that "influencer Inés García SanToss shared photos celebrating Spain's victory and their qualification for two consecutive major tournament finals, expressing overwhelming joy."

Spain defeated France 2-0 in the 2026 FIFA North America World Cup semi-final held at Texas Stadium in Dallas, USA. Having reached the final for the first time in 16 years, Spain aims for its second-ever title since the 2010 South Africa tournament. The final opponent will be either England or Argentina.

Spain dominated the match against France throughout. In particular, they completely neutralized France's fierce attacking lineup led by Kylian Mbappé.

In the 22nd minute of the first half, Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty kick awarded to Yamal, giving Spain the early advantage. Shortly after the start of the second half, Tottenham defender Pedro Porro scored an additional goal, solidifying their lead.

Yamal's girlfriend García SanToss in the stands drew attention during the match. Two years older than Yamal, she officially acknowledged their romantic relationship earlier this year.

García SanToss recently revealed how the couple met in an interview with the magazine 'Hola!'. She stated, "People might expect a cinematic love story where we meet fatefully in a store, but we actually met through social media."

Yamal's qualification for the final was also influenced by his girlfriend's special request. FIFA announced that BTS, Madonna, and Shakira would perform at the World Cup final stage in New York. Most importantly, Bieber, García SanToss's favorite artist, will also perform.

Earlier, García SanToss expressed her deep desire on her SNS with a message: "My love (Yamal), please make sure we reach the final no matter what. Can you hear me? No matter what!"

The media reported that "ultimately, Yamal led Spain to the final, allowing his girlfriend to finally enjoy the long-awaited final stage in person."
