Spain won the 2026 FIFA World Cup by defeating Argentina 1–0 after extra time in the final match.
The highly anticipated match took place on Sunday, July 19, 2026, at the New York New Jersey Stadium. Billed as a generational clash between Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal, the match remained heavily tactical and scoreless through regulation time.
- The Breakthrough: In the 106th minute of extra time, substitute Ferran Torres scored the winning goal for Spain. The strike came off a tidy headed assist by Nico Williams following a cross from Pedro Porro.
- Disciplinary Action: Argentina’s Enzo Fernández was sent off in the 90+2 minute after picking up a second yellow card, leaving Argentina with 10 players for the duration of extra time
