Gaza City — At a busy cafe in Gaza City, football fans gathered around a small screen, perched against an idle projector screen, to watch Sunday night’s crunch World Cup match between Spain and Saudi Arabia.
The crowd let out a scream as 18-year-old Lamine Yamal opened the scoring for Spain in the tenth minute. Three more Spanish goals followed in the next 35 minutes, securing a comfortable win for the European football powerhouse, to the delight of the patrons of the makeshift Gaza cafe.
