Spain are world champions once again after defeating Argentina 1-0 following extra time in a tense 2026 FIFA World Cup final at the New York/New Jersey Stadium.
After 90 goalless minutes, Ferran Torres broke the deadlock in the 106th minute, finishing from close range after a Nico Williams header to hand Spain their second World Cup crown, adding to their 2010 triumph. Argentina, reduced to 10 men after Enzo Fernández’s dismissal, defended bravely but could not force penalties. Spain dominated possession and created the better chances throughout before finally finding the decisive breakthrough.
