Ferran Torres headed the winner in the 106th minute after Enzo Fernandez’s first-half red card shifted the final at MetLife Stadium.

Spain defeated Argentina 1-0 in extra time on Sunday evening to claim their second World Cup title, ending the South American side's run of three consecutive major tournament victories [1]. The match remained scoreless through regulation despite Argentina playing with ten men for nearly the entire second half following a dismissal just before halftime. Ferran Torres broke the deadlock six minutes into the first period of extra time, heading home a cross from Nico Williams to secure the trophy and complete a Euro 2024 and World Cup 2026 double under manager Luis de la Fuente [2][10].
