The World Cup final between Spain and Argentina finishes goalless after 90 minutes and moves into extra time. Spain controls possession and creates more shooting opportunities, but it cannot find a breakthrough against Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez. Martínez makes a record number of saves, keeping the match level and denying Spain repeatedly as both teams seek the lead late in regulation.
Argentina’s late collapse comes when midfielder Enzo Fernández is sent off for a second booking after a late challenge in stoppage time. With Fernández dismissed three minutes into stoppage time, Argentina plays the remainder of normal time and the start of extra time with ten men.
Despite the numerical disadvantage, Argentina continues to defend and hold the draw, resulting in a historic goalless final that extends beyond regular time. Spain and Argentina both remain in contention for the trophy as the match enters extra periods following the deadlock.
