The FIFA has confirmed the date and location for the upcoming Finalissima, which will feature Spain, the European champions, against Argentina, the reigning Copa América holders. According to the Madrid newspaper Marca, this match is scheduled for Friday, March 27, 2026, at the Lusail Stadium in Doha, Qatar. This event promises to showcase a generational clash between 18-year-old Lamine Yamal and 38-year-old Lionel Messi.
The Finalissima pits the winner of the Euro against the Copa América champion each time it takes place. In 2022, Messi’s Argentina defeated Italy 3-0 at Wembley. However, the match’s occurrence hinges on Spain’s qualification for the 2026 World Cup. Currently, La Roja is leading its qualifying group and is likely to secure its place for the tournament in the United States. Should they need to go through playoffs, an alternate date would be arranged for the match against Argentina.
