"Lisandro Martinez is injured, Matthijs de Ligt gets injured a lot and Harry Maguire is 33 now, so I think we could do with a centre-back," Simpson told BBC Radio Manchester. United currently have a wealth of experience in the centre-back department with Martinez, De Ligt and Maguire, but injuries halted their playing time together last season.
While Spain celebrated a dramatic victory over Argentina, a brief exchange between two Barcelona-linked stars captured the attention of supporters around the world and quickly became one of the defining images of the tournament. The 2026 FIFA World Cup final delivered one of the most memorable moments in football history, and it involved both Lionel Messi and Lamine Yamal long after the final whistle had blown. While Spain celebrated a dramatic victory over Argentina, a brief exchange between two Barcelona-linked stars captured the attention of supporters around the world and quickly became one of the defining images of the tournament. The final itself represented more than a battle between two national teams. It was also seen as a symbolic meeting between generations, with Messi, widely regarded as one of football’s greatest players, sharing the stage with Yamal, the teenage sensation many believe could shape the sport’s future for years to come. Spain secured its second FIFA World Cup title by defeating Argentina 1-0 after extra time at New York New Jersey Stadium. The victory ended Argentina’s hopes of becoming back-to-back world champions and denied Messi what could have been the perfect ending to his World Cup journey. The match was fiercely contested and remained scoreless throughout regulation time. Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez produced a series of outstanding saves to keep his team alive before Ferran Torres eventually found the breakthrough in extra time. When the final whistle arrived, emotions spilled over across the pitch. Some players became involved in heated confrontations, while others shared moments of respect and admiration with their opponents. Among those scenes, one interaction stood above the rest. Messi and Yamal share special moment As Argentina processed the disappointment of defeat, cameras captured Messi embracing Yamal on the field. The Argentine legend appeared to speak directly to the young Spaniard before the pair exchanged a heartfelt hug. At first, nobody knew exactly what had been said between them. The brief conversation immediately sparked curiosity because of the significance of the occasion and the status of the two players involved. A few days later, Yamal finally revealed the content of the exchange. The message that meant everything According to Yamal, Messi offered encouragement rather than dwelling on his own disappointment. “He told me to keep going my way and that the future belongs to our generation.” The Barcelona star admitted the words carried enormous emotional weight. “Those words mean as much to me as the gold medal around my neck.” For a teenager who had just become a world champion, that statement highlighted the importance of receiving recognition from a player he has admired throughout his life. Yamal also made it clear how highly he regards the Argentine icon. “He’s someone I’ve always admired. At the end of the match, I showed him my respect.”
The audience of the 2026 World Cup final between Spain and Argentina drew better numbers than in the past for the country. The most anticipated match of the 2026 World Cup was the final, which Spain won over Argentina, with an audience that matched expectations. With the English-language audience just released by FOX, it became clear that the final was the most-watched match of the competition with a record 61.5 million viewers. This number was divided between 38.9 million viewers who watched the English-language broadcast with a peak of 51.7 million viewers, making it the most-watched match ever in the country, and 22.6 million viewers who watched the Spanish-language broadcast on Telemundo and Peacock. Audience in other countries The biggest match in soccer once again attracted massive audiences around the world. In Spain, it became the most-watched match in the country’s history, even surpassing the final in 2010, with an average audience of 15.7 million viewers according to Barlovento Comunicación. Lautaro Martínez scored the winning goal against England (Elsa/Getty Images) In the United Kingdom, the final was watched by 19.2 million viewers. With England no longer in the tournament, it could not surpass the semifinal against Argentina, which drew 24 million viewers. Italy once again proved they are still a soccer nation even after missing the last three editions, recording an average audience of 12.5 million viewers. The matchup may also have been influenced by many fans hoping Spain would win, as an Argentina victory would have tied Italy’s four titles. Audience in Canada It is clear the sport still has room to grow in Canada, even after the national team’s best-ever World Cup campaign. Canada won its first World Cup match and then its first knockout match against South Africa before losing to Morocco in the Round of 16. Despite that run, the final averaged 6.4 million viewers.
Martinez - "Martínez led his country's backline in passes (460) and accurate passes (427) while he became the only Argentine defender on record to score and assist in a FIFA World Cup game (v Cabo Verde)." Rodri - "The Spanish midfielder registered the most accurate passes (756), most carries (164) and most line-breaking passes (122) in the competition while that haul of 756 successful passes is the most ever in an edition of the World Cup on record." Haaland - "Haaland averaged a goal every 17.1 touches at the 2026 World Cup (120 touches, 7 goals), the second fewest on record (since 1966) for a player to score five or more at a single tournament after Oleg Salenko in 1994 (16.7 – 100 touches, 6 goals)."
