OneFootball x FanDuel: The key questions on World Cup Day 3️⃣4️⃣ | OneFootball

The biggest prize in world football is on the line as Spain and Argentina meet in the FIFA World Cup final.

Here are the big questions on Day 34.

What game is on today?

Spain v Argentina

Spain have reached their first World Cup final since lifting the trophy in 2010 after an outstanding 2-0 victory over France in the semi-finals. Mikel Oyarzabal opened the scoring from the penalty spot before Pedro Porro sealed the win after the break, capping another composed display from Luis de la Fuente's side, who have impressed throughout the tournament with their possession football and defensive solidity.

Argentina are one win away from retaining the World Cup after another dramatic knockout victory. Trailing England with five minutes remaining, Lionel Scaloni's side fought back through Enzo Fernández before Lautaro Martínez struck a stoppage-time winner to complete a remarkable 2-1 comeback and book a second consecutive World Cup final appearance. 

This final brings together two of the world's outstanding footballing nations. Spain are chasing a second World Cup crown to add to their triumph in South Africa 16 years ago, while Argentina are aiming to become the first nation since Brazil in 1962 to successfully defend the men's World Cup title. It also promises to be a symbolic passing of the torch, with Spain's exciting young generation led by Lamine Yamal facing Lionel Messi's experienced Argentina in what could be the captain's final World Cup appearance. 

Our prediction: Spain 2-1 Argentina AET

Which player should I look out for?

Lamine Yamal has been one of the stars of the tournament.

The teenage winger has dazzled throughout Spain's run to the final with his creativity, dribbling and composure on the biggest stage. Having already helped Spain win EURO 2024, he now has the chance to become one of the youngest players ever to lift the World Cup.

A potential duel with Lionel Messi, one of the greatest players in football history, only adds to the occasion. 

Can you give me one stat to impress my friends?

Argentina are attempting to become the first team to successfully defend the men's FIFA World Cup since Brazil won back-to-back titles in 1958 and 1962.
