The FC Barcelona player’s post-World Cup celebrations also included a sweet moment with his 3-year-old brother, who has become a fan-favorite fixture throughout the FIFA tournament this year.

After securing the victory over Argentina on Sunday, Yamal’s little brother, Keyne, could be seen running straight into his soccer star brother’s arms and screaming with joy over the win. Yamal later shared a snap of himself, mom Sheila Ebana and the toddler — who can be seen placing a hand on the World Cup trophy — on Instagram.

Yamal — who was one of the youngest players to compete in this year’s tournament — and García first went public with their relationship when he brought her to FC Barcelona’s end-of-season dinner in May.
