@cinepu1se: Two decades after these images were taken, Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal are set to face each other as Argentina meet Spain in the 2026 World Cup final. Nineteen years ago, a 20 year old Messi was photographed holding six month old Yamal during a UNICEF charity calendar shoot at Camp Nou. At the time, Messi was only beginning to establish himself at Barcelona, while Yamal was a baby, still many years away from joining the club's academy. Now they represent two generations of the same football lineage, with Messi nearing the end of one of the greatest careers in the sport's history and Yamal emerging as one of its next global stars. #messi #worldcup #lamineyamal #fifa
