Argentina protests Messi award to Spain captain

Spain secured the 2026 World Cup title after defeating Argentina 1-0 in the final, with clear dominance since the start of the match and deserving the championship entirely. Despite the defeat, the Argentine press praised Lionel Messi’s performance, noting he scored eight goals and provided four assists, considering it one of his best World Cup campaigns. They emphasized that his impact was greater than the Ballon d'Or he recently won, awarded to Spanish player Rodri. The reports stated that Messi was "the soul of the national team" and a symbol of the tournament. Statistics indicate that Messi has now become the oldest outfield player to participate in a World Cup final, having played in three finals so far. With a potential international retirement on the horizon, his departure marks the end of an extraordinary era in Argentine football history.
