Episode Details

Argentina’s chasing history this Sunday, aiming to become the first men’s team since 1962 to win back-to-back World Cups, as they take on Spain in the final. With Messi still magic and a squad that knows how to deliver under pressure, they’re eyeing a fourth title — even after a rocky path that included self-inflicted bumps. Spain, meanwhile, has been flawless all tournament, crushing France in the semis with class and composure. Coach Scaloni faces tough lineup decisions after a shaky England semifinal, but expects to roll out the same core that won in 2022: Martínez in goal, Romero and Martínez anchoring defense, De Paul and Paredes driving midfield, and Messi and Alvarez leading the attack. Tagliafico must hold his own against Spain’s electric Yamal. This is Argentina’s moment — can they repeat and rewrite the record books?
