NEW YORK NEW JERSEY STADIUM After what seemed like every player from Spain came over to shake his hand, Lionel Messi sat alone on the pitch. Argentinas superstar took off his cleats and shinguards and plopped his legs out in front of him, leaning back on his arms. As FIFA volunteers assembled the stage for the trophy presentation, one of them waved in his direction. Messi looked past him, instead scanning the stands for his family. Spain had just defeated defending champion Argentina 1-0 to win its second-ever World Cup behind a goal from Ferran Torres in the second half of extra time. Messi and his La Albiceleste had arrived in pursuit of history, hoping to become the first nation since Pel's Brazil to successfully win a second consecutive World Cup title. No such luck. Argentina finished with zero shots on goal. Spain had 12 and one went in. "Were sad," Argentine manager Lionel Scaloni said in his press conference after the match. "We feel extremely grateful to all our fans, all those people who just needed that energy that we were lacking. We managed to go all the way to the end when the match was so open, and it just couldn't be. In the end, they deserved the victory. Thats reality. We need to accept it. "But these are the moments to bounce back stronger. We need to reset and start again." Argentina's reign is officially over. It entered this summer on an unprecedented high as the two-time defending Copa Amrica champion, having won the tournament in 2021 and 2024 with the 2022 World Cup sandwiched in between. It was also Argentinas third World Cup final appearance in the last four editions. For Messi, there was an added layer of symbolism as he spent much of his life in Spain, where he became a global icon playing for Barcelona. So, will this be the last time the soccer world sees Messi on its biggest stage? Who knows. Regardless of what he decides, the 39-year-old defied age over the past 39 days. He opened the tournament with a hat trick in Argentina's 3-0 victory over Algeria, scored a stunning equalizer in the round of 16 against Egypt and delivered two defense-splitting assists in the semifinal against England. He finished with eight goals and four assists, narrowly missing out on the Golden Boot after France's Kylian Mbapp scored twice in Saturday's third-place match to finish with 10. Sunday was different. With Spain controlling possession for long stretches, Argentina was chasing rather than dictating and Messi didnt have opportunities to influence things the way he had throughout the tournament. An already exhausted La Albiceleste was forced to play with 10 men for more than 30 minutes after Enzo Fernndez was shown a red card just before extra time. Goalkeeper Emiliano Martnez, the 2022 Golden Glove winner, had to make a World Cup final-record 11 saves with a broken finger just to keep La Roja at bay. "I do have to be thankful for this group because they were warriors and that is the truth," Scaloni said. After the game, Scaloni was asked repeatedly about Messis future. "Its crystal clear to me that he will play up until he decides not to," said Scaloni, who had not yet spoken with Messi before addressing the media. "I hope everyone is proud of what hes achieved because hes the best football player ever to step foot on a pitch. I have no doubts about this. What he did this World Cup is incredible." As the trophy presentation stage came together, Messi rose from the turf and led his teammates to the left side of the pitch where Spains players were celebrating. He didnt appear to say a word. Instead, he stood quietly, taking it all in. His hands rested behind his back, the captains armband still wrapped tightly around his left biceps. Every so often, a photographer stepped in front of him, capturing another image that would soon be seen around the world. There was criticism, mostly throughout the knockout stage, that FIFA wanted Argentina to keep advancing. In reality, no matter what Egypt or England fans might say, Argentina was a resilient team. Time and again, theyd find themselves trailing only to respond with remarkable late comebacks. They embraced the suffering and the chaos and just knew theyd find a way to win. In the end, only Spain the most complete squad in the entire 48-team field who only conceded one goal the entire tournament could stop them. La Roja are now unbeaten in 38 consecutive matches. "It really hurt in our soul not being able to take the trophy with us," Scaloni said. "But we feel so proud of having competed like this. We could have been in better shape towards the end. But still, even so, we were very close to competing and making it and were so proud of our players. And thats all we can ask for is Argentina players to give it their all until the end and thats what they did." Scaloni, whose contract as manager expires in December, said he "cried my heart out in the locker room" and grew visibly emotional again toward the end of his press conference while talking about the success hes experienced in this job, a post hes held since 2018. "I never in my life would have thought, bear with me," Scaloni said, pausing to compose himself. "I never could have imagined that we would be in this place. In order to continue, you need a great deal of things, especially resetting your mind, rebooting, creating a group like this again. "That is very difficult. Its really painful." Messi took a deep breath and guided his team through a tunnel of Spain players onto the presentation stage where FIFA president Gianni Infantino and President Donald Trump placed silver medals around their necks. Argentina then walked past the World Cup trophy that they hoisted four years ago, across the stage and over to the south end of the stadium where thousands of devoted supporters draped in blue and white were still chanting and singing. The video board zoomed in on Messis face, tears welled in his eyes. After a while, he led the team off the field and through the tunnel. Perhaps for the last time.

Here's how this week's two-start slate stacks up

Antonio Conte: Tottenham captain Cristian Romero is a bit underrated and by far the best defender at the World CupTottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero lost the final of the 2026 World Cup with Argentina, suffering a 1-0 defeat to Spain.The Spurs star has been one of their most reliable players as they made another run to the final following their 2022 win.Former Tottenham boss Antonio Conte hailed Romero, whom he managed during his tenure in North London.Conte said (via Tuttomercatoweb), The World Cup hes having is a bit underrated. Hes having an amazing World Cup, the best defender overall and by far the best.Hes really improved a lot I read that some Italian teams want to buy him, but I dont know if Tottenham want to sell him (laughs).Hes a prickly player, and the Argentines are still on their way.Thats a positive thing, and hes running out of steam. In a match, its always your death, my life. Unnerving the opponent is part of the game.Unfortunately, Romeros tournament ended on a sour note for several reasons.Not only did Argentina fall short in the final, but the centre-back also picked up an injury that could have significant implications for his club future.The issue will require further assessment, and that uncertainty could complicate any potential summer transfer.Tottenham would no doubt prefer to keep one of the Premier Leagues elite defenders.Unfortunately, Romero has spent months speaking like a player ready for a new challenge, making a sale seem increasingly logical.However, if Spurs were planning to cash in, an injury could cool interest from potential buyers or delay negotiations altogether. It leaves all parties in an awkward position.Romeros desire for a fresh start has hardly been a secret, yet his fitness concerns may now force him to remain in north London, at least until he proves he is fully fit again.
