Spain vs Argentina: Heart-Stopping Extra Time Drama as Enzo Fernandez’s Red Card Sparks Controversy!

Throughout the final matches of the 2026 World Cup, Argentina head coach Lionel Scaloni decided to start Nahuel Molina at right back. While he shone on the offensive end, he left too many gaps on defense. As a result, Gonzalo Montiel has now emerged as the starter for the final, having impressed against England by cutting off the runs of Jude Bellingham and others.

Facing the challenge of marking Alex Baena and Dani Olmo, Gonzalo Montiel needs to bring his best defensive game. To do so, defensive tenacity and the ability to read the play will be key. However, he also needs to contribute to the high press, seeking to neutralize his opponents and pin them back in their own half.
