Spain secured the 2026 World Cup title after a 1-0 victory against the titleholders, Argentina, this past Sunday. This achievement marks the second time La Roja has taken home the trophy, mirroring their inaugural win in 2010.
Led by Luis de la Fuente, the Spanish squad maintained command throughout the match while Argentina found it difficult to gain momentum. Despite their clear advantage, Spain failed to score during regulation time. The match remained deadlocked through the first half of extra time, during which Argentina was forced to play with ten men following Enzo Fernandez’s dismissal for a second yellow card.
The decisive moment arrived early in the second half of extra time when Ferran Torres converted a pass from Nico Williams, securing the tournament win for Spain.
