Argentina secures a convincing 3-1 victory over Switzerland, with Alexis Mac Allister's early goal in the 10th minute setting the tone for a decisive performance. Dominating the shot count 22-11, Argentina effectively controls the match, capitalizing on their offensive pressure to maintain the lead and dictate the game's tempo.

Spain are world champions for the second time. Ferran Torres' 106th-minute strike — a precise left-footed finish — broke the deadlock in extra time after 90 minutes of Spanish dominance that Argentina survived through defensive resolve and goalkeeper Juan Musso. With Enzo Fernández sent off in the 90th minute for a second yellow card, Argentina's resistance finally cracked. Spain's 65% possession, 20 shots to Argentina's 2, and nine corners told the story of total control that needed extra time to convert into the ultimate prize.

Argentina's coach Scaloni emphasizes peak performance against Spain in the World Cup final showdown.
