Spain is taking on defending champion Argentina in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final at the New York/New Jersey Stadium on Sunday.

    A lot of eyes are on 19-year-old Lamine Yamal as he takes part in his first-ever World Cup final after being branded as one of the biggest talents in the football world at the moment.

    A closer look at Yamal’s headband reveals the number 08304. The number is the postal code of the neighbourhood - Rocafonda - where he began his footballing journey.

    Yamal, who was born in Spain to a Moroccan father and a mother from Equatorial ‌Guinea, has never forgotten his roots. Throughout his career, ​he has honoured Rocafonda with his trademark “304” hand gesture after scoring goals.
