The World Cup final is here after a month of football, 48 nations, three host countries, and broken records. For the first time in World Cup history, the final will feature South American champion Argentina against European champion Spain. The final will be played at the New York New Jersey Stadium (MetLife Stadium) in New Jersey, starting at 3:00 PM local time on Sunday, July 19. This is 8:00 PM in England. The match will be played in two 45-minute halves, with a 15-minute halftime break. However, the halftime break may be longer due to the halftime show. If the match is tied after the two halves, extra time will be played, consisting of two 15-minute halves. If the match is still tied, the winner will be determined by penalty kicks. Argentina captain Lionel Messi has been amazing fans with his incredible dribbling, smart passes, and amazing goals for almost 20 years. He led his country to win the World Cup in 2022 and this final may be his last World Cup match. Messi is currently competing for the Golden Boot award with eight goals, but Kylian Mbappé (France) is leading with 10 goals. Lamine Yamal is one of the world's greatest young football stars. The 19-year-old Spanish winger has been amazing fans with his incredible dribbling, fast feet, and fearless playing style. This is Yamal's first World Cup, but he has already made exciting performances that have taken Spain to the final. If Yamal shines in the final, he may help Spain win their second World Cup. The final will start with a big celebration of the tournament's journey through the US, Canada, and Mexico. The closing ceremony will begin 90 minutes before the match at the New York New Jersey Stadium. Tom Cruise, Jennifer Hudson, and others will perform at the closing ceremony. For the first time, there will be a halftime show during the final, featuring Chris Martin from Coldplay, Justin Bieber, Madonna, Shakira, Gustavo Dudamel, and BTS.
