Good news! The fourth edition of the Finalissima will indeed take place in 2026. This match which opposes the winner of the Euro to that of the American COPA will therefore see Spain and Argentina compete. Not to mention that Lionel Messi and his teammates are also reigning world champions!
The announcement was made on the website of the South American Football Confederation (Conmebol). On the calendar published by the body, we can see that the Finalissima (the grand final in Italian) was set next March. The exact date and the place have not been communicated for the moment. The meeting may be held again in Europe, knowing that Argentina won the final of 2022 in front of Italy in Wembley.
The Argentinian media Tyc Sports reveals, for its part, that the meeting could be played around March 20. But this date will be retained provided that Spain wins its qualifying ticket at the 2026 World Cup without having to go through European dams.
A Lamine Yamal-Messi duel!
If this meeting is enticing, it is also because it will allow you to see Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal compete. While the 18 -year -old prodigy is constantly compared to the Golden Ball, this match will therefore be an opportunity to see the two left -handers gathered on the same football field.
Who will Lionel Messi or Lamine Yamal win this fourth edition? Answer in 2026!
