What is hidden behind Yamal's celebration with the number '304'

What is hidden behind Yamal's celebration with the number '304'

Lamin Yamal last night after sending the ball into Spain's net in the 21st minute of the match, he ran towards his team's bench celebrating with his teammates.

As part of his celebration, he forms a 3, a 0, and a 4 with his fingers ( 304 ). And this for a touching reason.

These are the last three digits of the postal code of the Rocafonda neighborhood (08304), one of the poorest neighborhoods in Catalonia, which the far-right VOX called "multicultural garbage".

Yamal grew up in Rocafonda. Most of his family still lives there. In fact, outside a small bakery, until recently run by his cousins ​​and Abdul's uncle, is a mural of Yamal wearing a Barcelona jersey, surrounded by the flags of Morocco (his father's country of origin ) of Equatorial Guinea (his mother) and Spain, where he was born.

Rocafonda is one of the poorest neighborhoods in the Maresme area of ​​Barcelona.
