2026 World Cup: Trump booed during Spain's victory
The 2026 World Cup final in New Jersey saw Spain winning its second title in the history of the tournament, following a 1-0 victory over Argentina in extra time thanks to a goal from Ferran Torres. During the medal ceremony, U.S. President Donald Trump faced loud boos from the crowd, especially as he stepped onto the field to participate in the trophy presentation, where the reactions were broadly negative. Similar responses were observed earlier before the match when his image appeared on screens. Trump attended the game alongside FIFA President Gianni Infantino, amid a gathering of political and sports figures. This marked the first time he attended a live match during his presidency. The match concluded with a strong tactical effort from the Argentine team, which saw their player Enzo Fernández sent off in the 93rd minute. Spain capitalized on the numerical disadvantage to secure its second tournament title, the first having been in 2010.
