Finalissima between Argentina and Spain set to get a date soon | OneFootball

The anticipated showdown between the Argentina National Team and Spain, for the Finalissima, already has a potential date and venue: it would be in March 2026 in Doha, the capital of Qatar, just a few months before the 2026 World Cup.

According to Marca, the clash between the champions of America and Europe would be on Saturday, March 28, 2026 at the Lusail, the venue that hosted the final of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, where the Albiceleste won on penalties against France to claim their third star.

Argentina — the reigning world champion and back-to-back Copa América winner — is already qualified for the next World Cup, and La Furia Roja — who just beat Georgia this Saturday — took another step toward qualification. In this context, the executives of both associations are already working to make the Finalissima happen.

In recent months, different possible venues were discussed for the Finalissima between Argentina and Spain: Wembley (where the Albiceleste beat Italy 3-0 in the 2022 edition), Riyadh (Saudi Arabia), Montevideo (Uruguay).

However, in Spain they anticipate that Doha’s Lusail is emerging as the favorite venue for the highly anticipated showdown against the Albiceleste, a particularly special clash between the champions of America and Europe just months before the 2026 World Cup (United States, Mexico, and Canada).
