SpainSpain and Argentina face off in the 2026 World Cup final, aiming to claim the title and add to their footballing legacies. Spain seeks its first world championship since 2010, while Argentina, led by Lionel Messi, aims for its fourth star. Political leaders from Spain, Argentina, and the United States—the host nation—are attending the match. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez has confirmed his attendance, while Argentine President Javier Milei has opted out due to 'superstition.' Sánchez will sit alongside U.S. President Donald Trump, a pairing notable for recent tensions between them. Spanish footballer Borja Iglesias was asked if he would greet Trump at the final and responded that he would do so to avoid legal trouble, emphasizing that he wants to avoid controversy and that he lacks the power to influence such decisions.
