Sporting events don’t come any bigger than the World Cup final. Sunday’s encounter between Spain and Argentina in New Jersey will be the first time that the reigning European and South American champions have met in a World Cup final, making this a fitting conclusion to the tournament.
Spain are the favourites. Luis De La Fuente’s side made a big statement by comfortably beating France in the final four, keeping a sixth clean sheet in eight games. Rodri was at his imperious best against France and will give the European champions control in the centre of the pitch.
