FIFA World Cup 2026 Final: The excitement in the football world is at its peak before the final of the FIFA World Cup 2026. On one hand, Lionel Messi-led Argentina is dreaming of becoming world champion for the second consecutive time, while on the other hand, the Spain team adorned with Lamin Yamal and young stars will enter the field with the intention of winning the World Cup for the second time. Before this great match, great Brazilian footballer and two-time World Cup winner Ronaldo Nazario has made a big claim.
Ronaldo called Spain a strong contender for the final
Speaking to ESPN Brazil, Ronaldo said that he is confident that Spain will win the final and that too easily.
He said, “I think Spain will win this match easily.”
According to Ronaldo, France and Spain were the strongest teams in the entire tournament. However, Spain defeated France 2-0 in the semi-finals and made it to the finals and now it has a great chance to win the World Cup.
Messi gave a big warning to Argentina
Ronaldo believes that if Spain takes an early lead then it will be very difficult for Argentina to make a comeback. He said, “If Spain takes a lead of one or two goals, I don’t think Argentina will be able to make a comeback, because after that Spain will have control of the ball throughout the match.”
According to him, Spain’s biggest strength is its possession football, midfield control and fast attack, which can maintain constant pressure on any team.
Argentina close to making history
Before entering the final, Argentina had been unbeaten for 37 consecutive matches. If Messi’s team wins the title, it will become the first men’s team to win two consecutive World Cups since Brazil in 1962.
Spain, on the other hand, will be trying to win their second FIFA World Cup since 2010. The balance of young players and experienced stars has made them one of the most impressive teams throughout the tournament.
Weather also became favorable in New Jersey
The final match will be played at the New York-New Jersey Stadium. For the past few days, concerns were being raised about the smoke from forest fires in Canada, but the weather remained completely clear on the day of the match. Amidst the clear sky and favorable conditions, the eyes of the world are now fixed on this great match.
Whether Ronaldo’s prediction will prove correct or whether Lionel Messi will be successful in creating history for his team will now be decided on the field.
