Argentina returns to Lusail to face Spain

On March 27, 2026, Lusail Stadium will be the scene of the new traditional confrontation between the champions of South America and Europe, called “Vinalisima,” where Argentina will face Spain, according to what the organizing committee announced yesterday.

The local organizing committee for football events in Qatar said, “For Argentina, this match represents a symbolic return to the scene of their exciting victory over France in the final of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, where (La Albiceleste) ended a 36-year wait to regain the most expensive award in the world of football.”

Argentina will face “Vinalisima” for the second time in a row as South American champion, after defeating European champion Italy 3-0 in June 2022 in London.
