The return of the Finalissima between Copa America and UEFA Euro champions in 2022 was great news for soccer fans, who are now looking forward to seeing Argentina and Spain face each other.
The question everyone has been making since the continental competitions came to an end is when and where the Finalissima will be played. While both the date and venue have yet to be confirmed, it looks like we should already rule out the possibility of seeing Argentina and Spain face off in South America.
According to Argentine national team insider Gaston Edul of TyC Sports, the Finalissima will take place in the United States or Europe.
Lionel Messi and company, who beat then European Championship winners Italy 3-0 at Wembley in 2022, will get the chance to defend their Finalissima crown after going back-to-back at the 2024 Copa America.
Spain, however, will try and claim revenge for Europe against the Conmebol champions after lifting the Euro 2024 title in Germany this summer. Therefore, the soccer community has reasons to be excited about this game.
