Spain’s historic World Cup title ends Britain’s 24-year wait for a new champion.
In a pulsating display that gripped New Jersey’s MetLife Stadium, Spain defeated Argentina 3-2 in a World Cup final for the ages. The 90th minute saw a frenetic finish, with Ferran Torres’ strike in the 88th minute being the decisive blow.

It’s a dream realized, a culmination of blood, sweat, and tears that have been shed over the years.
