The Finalissima 2026, according to recent reports from MARCA, is set to take place in Doha on March 27. The current FIFA World Cup champions, Lionel Messi’s Argentina, will face Spain, with the Lusail Stadium in Doha — where Argentina were crowned world champions — likely to host the match.
The report has created a huge buzz on social media, as football fans are eager to witness Lionel Messi vs Lamine Yamal. Once officially confirmed, it will mark the first-ever meeting between the two players. The young FC Barcelona sensation will face the Barça legend, Messi — a player he has often called “the best player in history” and his role model.
What is the Finalissima?
The Finalissima is a special contest played between the reigning Copa América and UEFA Euro champions. Argentina won the latest Copa América by defeating Colombia, while Spain lifted the most recent UEFA Euro title by beating England. Football fans can therefore expect an enthralling battle when these two continental champions clash.
Argentina are also the defending Finalissima champions, having defeated Italy 3-0 at Wembley Stadium in the 2022 edition.
