Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 in the 2026 World Cup final, securing its second world title. Ferran Torres scored the decisive goal in the 106th minute after a back pass from Nico Williams. The match was a tense affair with Argentina failing to produce a single shot on target. Argentina’s Enzo Fernández was sent off in the 93rd minute for a second yellow card. The Albiceleste also lost key players Lisandro Martínez, Cristian Romero, and Julián Álvarez to injury and exhaustion. Spain dominated possession and eventually broke through in extra time, repeating its 2010 triumph with another extra-time goal. The victory caps a strong tournament for La Roja, which overcame a slow start to dominate the knockout stages.
