Spain won the 2026 World Cup, their second title. They beat Argentina 1-0 after extra time in the final at MetLife Stadium on July 19, 2026, with Ferran Torres scoring the only goal in the 106th minute. Spain conceded just one goal in the entire tournament.

The final was played at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, just outside New York City, on July 19, 2026. The tournament opened at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City on June 11, 2026.

It was the largest World Cup ever: 48 teams, 104 matches and 16 host stadiums across three countries. The United States staged 11 venues, Mexico three and Canada two, from June 11 to July 19, 2026.

The 48 teams were drawn into 12 groups of four. The top two from each group, plus the eight best third-placed teams, advanced to a new Round of 32, followed by the Round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals and the final.

All three co-hosts reached the Round of 16, the first time the United States, Canada and Mexico had all advanced from the group stage together. They were then eliminated in the last 16, by Belgium, Morocco and England respectively.

France's Kylian Mbappé won the Golden Boot with 10 goals, his second in a row, becoming the all-time leading World Cup goalscorer. Spain's Rodri won the Golden Ball as best player, and Spain's Unai Simón won the Golden Glove.
