📖 The Story of the Final
Spain's second World Cup, sixteen years after the first. It was 0–0 after 90 minutes, and Argentina had not managed a single shot — no team had ever gone through the first 90 minutes of a World Cup final without one. Enzo Fernández was sent off for a second yellow card in stoppage time at the end of normal time, so Argentina played extra time a man down. In the 106th minute Nico Williams headed the ball across the six-yard box and Ferran Torres finished from close range. That was the game. Spain ended with 20 shots to Argentina's 2, conceded one goal in the entire tournament and never trailed for a single minute of it. Slavko Vinčić of Slovenia refereed in front of 80,663 people at MetLife Stadium. Spain became the first country to hold the men's and women's World Cups at the same time, and Luis de la Fuente, 65, became the oldest coach ever to win one. Man of the Match: Ferran Torres.
