On the night of July 20, the 2026 FIFA World Cup concluded in New York. The Spanish national team emerged as the tournament winner, defeating Argentina in the final. US President Donald Trump was present at the stadium and personally presented the main trophy to the team after the match.
Final: Intense Battle and Decisive Goal in Overtime
The match between Spain and Argentina took place in an extremely tense atmosphere. Neither team managed to score a goal during the 90 minutes of regular time. The decisive goal was scored by the Spanish team during overtime — this goal proved to be the only and winning goal of the match. Notably, the Argentine national team did not take a single shot on goal throughout the entire game.
Award Ceremony Featuring Trump
After the match ended, US President Donald Trump, along with FIFA President Gianni Infantino, approached the players. First, silver medals were awarded to the Argentine team and gold medals to Spain. Then, the FIFA World Cup trophy was handed over to the Spanish national team from hand to hand.
Footage shows that Trump, standing next to the winners, seemingly intentionally positioned himself to be in the frame — his gaze was directed at the cameras during the trophy lift.

During the halftime break of the final, spectators were treated to a grand show featuring Madonna, Shakira, and other stars. This became one of the bright moments of the evening, adding spectacle to the decisive match.
