How the 2026 World Cup ended
In tonight's tournament final, the national teams of Spain and Argentina faced off. All 90 minutes of the match were tense, as neither team managed to score during regular time. Spain was only able to put the ball in the net during overtime. That goal became the first and decisive one in the clash.
US President Donald Trump was present at the stadium throughout the match, and after the game, together with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, he approached the players.
First, Trump and Infantino presented silver and gold medals to the teams of Argentina and Spain, after which they jointly handed the FIFA trophy to the Spanish national team.
Moreover, judging by the footage, when the Spanish team lifted the trophy and celebrated their victory, Trump seemingly intended to stand almost alongside the team to get into the frame (his gaze was directed at the cameras).
After all these events, the 2026 World Cup has officially come to an end. The next battle for the trophy and the world champion title is not expected until 2030.
