Video: Rice's son's wish brings together Gordon and Yamal in an "exceptional moment"
What happened?
A quiet gesture stole the spotlight after Spain met England in the UEFA Nations League. Anthony Gordon set out to grant the wish of teammate Declan Rice's son, asking Lamine Yamal to pose for a keepsake photo. The scene drew players from both camps together, far from the heat of the contest.
Gordon caught up with Yamal after the match and explained that Rice's son wanted a picture with him. The Barcelona star was happy to oblige. He walked over to the child and posed for the shot, with Rice, who missed the game, taking on the role of photographer before shaking Yamal's hand and heading off.
Yamal had been at the heart of Spain's 3-2 win over England in yesterday's UEFA Nations League clash, finding the net for the Spanish. Gordon got one back for England.
