Yamal took to his official Instagram account to revisit the celebration from his goal in the first leg against the Three Lions, firing off a defiant message ahead of the rematch.
La Roja won that first meeting with England at Wembley 3-2, in the opening round of the European tournament.
The post dropped just two hours before kick-off. It's become something of a ritual for the youngster, who loves to send out messages on social media before the big games, whether in a Barcelona shirt or Spain's, sparking plenty of interaction among his fans and followers.
Through the message, Yamal seems to be chasing that same spark he found against England. The fixture hands him a fresh chance to prove himself on the big stage, especially after a recent dip from his usual standards.
Spain arrive unbeaten on 15 points. England, by contrast, lost the first leg to La Roja 2-3 at Wembley in the group stage opener.
