Argentina and Spain will play each other in the 2025 Finalissima.<\/p>\n

Albiceleste won their second consecutive Copa America trophy on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Lautauro Martinez scored the only goal as Argentina defeated Colombia 1-0.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, La Roja beat England 2-1 in the final of Euro 2024.<\/p>\n

The first-ever Finalissima (or \u201cgrand final\u201d) was played in 2022.<\/p>\n

Italy and Argentina clashed in the inaugural Finalissima, with the South Americans winning 3-0.<\/p>\n

Next year, Lionel Messi is expected to lead his country again, this time against a rising Spain team featuring 17-year-old sensation Lamine Yamal, whom he had met only once in a now-viral photoshoot in 2007.<\/p>\n
