😱 The speculation begins: when could Spain and Argentina meet | OneFootball

After more than two hours of broadcast filled with musical performances, speeches, and awards, the World Cup now has all its groups fully confirmed.

Spain has been drawn as the head of Group H, which it will share with Uruguay, Cape Verde, and Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, Argentina, who will be seeking back-to-back championships, will be the head of Group J, sharing it with Algeria, Austria, and Jordan.

Now, as the two main favorites for the 2026 World Cup, everyone is wondering when they might face each other, and it must be said that there is a chance it could happen.

If Argentina and Spain advance as first or second, but do not finish in the same position in their respective groups, they would face each other in the FIRST knockout round.

If both teams finish first, they could only meet in the final. Due to the new "balanced distribution of teams" rule, France and Spain would be on one side of the bracket, and Argentina and England on the other.
