  The Cape Verde 🇨🇻 result is still insane to think about.

  Another crazy stat. Emi Martinez had more saves in the WC Final than Unai Simon did for the whole tournament lol

  0 on target for the whole 2 hours is insane 💀

  The 2010 Spain team had a genuinely top class goal scorer, for that reason I'd give them a slight edge.

  Argentina has suffered serious reputational damage that will be hard to calculate.

  Argentina is going to be so mid without Messi and I think they need nothing more than to be properly humbled.

  I think De La Fuente having that experience within the Unders is such an overlooked aspect on why they’re so successful. <br><br>Most international managers only get good views on their players in short spurts and they also have short tenures if they fall short. <br><br>Being in the system for that long and keeping tabs on all his players probably equates him to being a club manager atp

  Fun Fact: Argentina actually set a new world record at this final and is now the first and only team in world cup history to achieve 0.00 xG (Expected goals) in regular time. While xG is a relatively new method of data collection, all<br>xG-data has been fully digitized and recorded retroactively, dating back all the way to 1966. So its official, no team at a world cup ever sucked as hard as argentina in the 2026 final!

  It&apos;s crazy that Cabo Verde both faced both the dethroned (Argentina) and now-reigning World Champions (Spain) in the same World Cup run
