Argentina Fans Petition World Cup Final Replay; Spain-Argentina Rematch Discussed for FinalissimaPreviousNext

Following Spain's 1-0 victory over Argentina in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final, some Argentine fans have launched a petition calling for a replay, citing controversial refereeing decisions by Slavko Vincic. Argentina's coach Lionel Scaloni acknowledged Spain's superiority and did not blame officiating. Separately, discussions are underway to stage a rematch between the two teams in the Finalissima tournament, potentially in November 2026 in Qatar, though previous plans were delayed due to regional conflicts.
