ESPN · back to the audit
Ferran Torres clinched Spain's second men's World Cup title with an extra-time winner against Argentina in a match marred by Enzo Fernández's red card for a reckless foul on Pau Cubarsí.

Spain's midfielder Rodri lifted the World Cup trophy.

President Donald Trump was present as well and awarded the trophy to Rodri as Spain sat atop the soccer world once more.

'The goal belonged to 47 million people. It wasn't just mine or the 26 players.' Ferran Torres said.

'I feel sad. They were better, to be honest,' Lionel Messi said, on receiving his runner-up medal.
