Spain secured its second World Cup title after defeating Argentina 1-0 in the final match of the tournament. The decisive goal, scored by Ferran Torres in stoppage time, cemented the victory for “La Roja.” Throughout the competition, Spain remained undefeated, extending its winning streak to 38 matches across all competitions. Despite this remarkable run, the team registered only one goal across its eight fixtures in the World Cup.
Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski commented on the tournament, suggesting that Lamine Yamal did not display his peak performance during the World Cup, though he expressed satisfaction regarding Spain’s championship success. Yamal was a prominent figure in Spain’s campaign, featuring in every match and starting seven games, following a return from a groin muscle injury sustained earlier in the season. While the 17-year-old contributed to the team’s efforts, his scoring record remained modest, with one goal coming during the group stage victory against Saudi Arabia, and no other goals recorded.
The culmination of the tournament marked a significant achievement for Spanish football on the global stage.
