Argentina and Spain to face off in 2026 ‘Finalissima’ in Qatar

European Championship winners Spain will face Copa America champions Argentina in the ‘Finalissima’ game in Qatar in March next year, European soccer body UEFA announced on Thursday.

The contest between the two continental champions was revived in 2021 when UEFA and South American confederation CONMEBOL strongly opposed FIFA’s plans for a biennial World Cup.

Lionel Messi’s Argentina outclassed Italy 3-0 in the 2022 contest and the South American side will return to the Lusail Stadium in Qatar where they were crowned world champions three years ago.

Spain and Argentina have met 14 times, with both teams winning six times each.
