No miracle for Argentina after a 1-0 extra time loss to Spain in the World Cup Final. Spain had outshot Argentina 20-2 and Emi Martinez made 11 saves which is a record for the World Cup Final.
The guns were silenced for the Argentines being held against their will, while Ferran Torres from Barcelona scored the winning goal in the 106th minute for Spain.
Enzo Hernandez got a red card in the 90+3 for a flagrant foul, and this time, Argentina could not overcome the deficit and their luck ran out.
Congratulations, Spain, for a job well done!!
