Context & Stakes
🏆 Defending champions
Argentina are the reigning world champions, having won Qatar 2022 — with Messi now the all-time leading scorer in World Cup history at 18 goals.
⚽ The youngest star
Lamine Yamal (17) is making history as one of the youngest players ever to reach a World Cup semifinal, with Spain's tiki-taka machine rolling through the tournament.
🏟️ Two giants, one dream
France and England have never met in a World Cup final. Argentina vs England would reprise one of football's greatest rivalries — from Maradona's Hand of God in 1986 to Messi's era.
📍 The MetLife final
The winner of both semis plays at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ on July 19 — the largest stadium ever to host a World Cup final, with capacity for over 82,500.
