Kate Abdo expertly translated Yamal's Spanish interview
Kate Abdo received widespread praise for her impressive Spanish translation during a post-match interview with soccer player Lamine Yamal. Fans lauded her language skills, calling her performance "real talent" and "absolute cinema." Abdo translated a conversation between Yamal and Thierry Henry, who conducted the interview in Spanish. Yamal, speaking only Spanish, required Abdo's translation for the English-speaking audience after Barcelona's Champions League semi-final match. The interview occurred after Barcelona's 3-3 draw with Inter Milan. The CBS Sports broadcast also featured banter, including a humorous exchange about Micah Richards' use of the women's restroom.
