Spain officially added another World Cup title to its collection after narrowly defeating Argentina 1-0 in the 2026 World Cup final held at the New York Stadium in the United States on Monday. The victory secured La Roja their second World Cup title in history, following their triumph in the 2010 edition in South Africa.
Spain's only goal came from substitute Ferran Torres in extra time. This result ended a 16-year wait for the Spanish national team to return to the top of world football.
Spain's success also demonstrates their consistency throughout the tournament. Luis de la Fuente's team is undefeated in nine matches at the 2026 World Cup.
Spain's only winless match came in their opening Group A match, a goalless draw against Cape Verde. They then swept their next eight matches, eliminating several strong teams in the knockout stages before ultimately defeating Argentina in the final.
The 2026 World Cup title was even more special because it was accompanied by another historic achievement. According to FIFA data, Spain now had a 38-match unbeaten streak from 2024 until the end of the 2026 World Cup.
Very nice
