← World Cup Final LIVE - Lionel Messi's Argentina face Lamine Yamal's Spain

SPAIN ARE YOUR 2026 WORLD CUP WINNERS! 🏆 Give us your instant reaction

matthew.johns2mo ago

Not sure I have ever seen a more unanimous show of support for one country winning a World Cup. Spain absolutely deserved to win and Argentina should be ashamed! 🇪🇸

alan.mayo512mo ago

A missed opportunity by England. I think we could have beaten Spain if we played the right way but with our present manager we would have had tuch all chance! 😊

ishaan.bhattacharya2mo ago

Most one-sided Final of my life. Was a hard watch too, but the overall WC was really fun. Gotta return to waiting 4 years though

james.brooke2mo ago

Celebrated Torres scoring as much as I’ve celebrated any Liverpool goal for a while! Felt like it was slipping towards Argentina scoring a scrappy goal or Messi doing something from nothing. Would have been the biggest robbery in football history.

gaelhj2mo ago

Ironic that Trump is wearing a red tie 🤣🤣

djlinsanitylau2mo ago

Well, at least 🇪🇸 got what they deserved. Even though if England could win it that easily.

dancoombs2mo ago

Right team won. Not gonna lie I wanted an Argentina equaliser at the end for the drama- just to get their hopes up before they hopefully lost on penalties. It would have been a travesty if they won it

aikansh2mo ago

Well deserved, Argentina was abysmal take away their 2022 trophy?

dantowen819512mo ago

Haha a Calciopoli-style title stripping?

markmarston2mo ago

Best team won today but as an England fan, it still stings a bit knowing that Spanish team was probably there for the taking. Think they’ve overachieved these last couple years. Fair play to them tho 👏🇪🇸

callum_boyle2mo ago

Spain would’ve done the exact same to England. No chance anyone was breaking down that Spain backline

dancoombs2mo ago

I do agree England would have given them more of a game

leeclarke05082mo ago

Get Paredes in jail. Horrible sod.

jameslloyd14.jl2mo ago

Spain deserved champions, best team by a ludicrous margin. They are ridiculously good for their personnel, incredibly impressive. Maybe that’s why it’s a bit flat, they’re simply too good. Not much in the way of narrative especially as Yamal was quiet

febced12mo ago

I'm in a state of abdokute, complete, total and utter euphoria and hysteria. It's wonderful to finally see how a South American team got paid for their thuggery. Did Messi play in the WC final❓

dantowen819512mo ago

Haha imagine being so bad you can’t even find a way to give Messi the ball 😂you’ve got the best player in the game on your team and resort to cheating instead

gorriejonathan2mo ago

Usually like to see some aggro at the end but that was disgraceful 🤣

lee.connor2mo ago

A win for football. Battered them. Paredes was a disgrace and needs a long long ban

dantowen819512mo ago

Agreed on Paredes, that’s an assault charge off the pitch

gaelhj2mo ago

Argentina don’t accept losing. There could be trouble later.

peter.lynch2mo ago

Very deserved, big congrats, football is the winner 😎

brook0102mo ago

Glad they won, bit of justice. That behaviour from Argentina after losing is absolutely shameful

david.comerford2mo ago

Simeone and Paredes weren't even playing football

gaelhj2mo ago

Spain played proper football. Argentina just cheated and fouled. It would have been so unjust for them to win.

dancoombs2mo ago

Bad miss at the end from Simeone too

nielbarker32mo ago

Congratulations to Spain. Well deserved. I can't believe how bad Argentina were. They didn't come to play football, they just tried go cheat their way to a victory.. They should be ashamed. Worst final in modern memory.. 🤬

gaelhj2mo ago

Absolutely! The England v France game would have made a brilliant final. England were robbed.

jamie.brown822mo ago

Baby GOAT crowded world champion! 🇪🇸

gaelhj2mo ago

Absolutely delighted for Spain. Argentina are very bad sports and didn’t deserve the win. Feel a bit sorry for Messi though. Not a good end to his career 🤷‍♀️.

james.brooke2mo ago

Should’ve retired from international football after 22 World Cup. Got greedy and wanted another

harveyleonard992mo ago

That Argentina side is one of the most pathetic teams I’ve ever watched. They play like thugs and then lose like cowards.

dantowen819512mo ago

Agreed, cowardly is exactly the word - it’s not often I accuse someone of letting down their country but Paredes at full time…

david.comerford2mo ago

No shots for 117 minutes. I'm in disbelief at that stat. How can you let that happen in a World Cup final

jackgallagher2mo ago

Well deserved! Embarrassing showing from Argentina

amirmir2mo ago

FOOTBALL IS ALWAYS THE WINNER!!

dantowen819512mo ago

Never - in the history of the game - has there been a more deserving loser! Viva Spain!
