Argentina and Spain are set to clash in the 2025 Finalissima after both teams secured recent tournament victories. Argentina, led by Lautaro Martinez, claimed their second consecutive Copa America title with a 1-0 win over Colombia on Sunday. Meanwhile, Spain triumphed in Euro 2024, defeating England 2-1 in the final.
The Finalissima, a “grand final” matchup, first took place in 2022, where Argentina emerged victorious against Italy with a 3-0 scoreline. Next year, Lionel Messi is expected to lead Argentina once more, facing a rising Spanish team that includes 17-year-old sensation Lamine Yamal, whom Messi met in a viral photoshoot back in 2007.
