Two generations of Barça No. 10 meet at their peak! The strongest spear vs the strongest shield
“Clash of Spear and Shield”
At 3:00 a.m. Beijing time on July 20, Argentina vs Spain—the battle for the Hercules Cup begins. Who will it go to?

Two generations of No. 10: Messi vs Yamal
       The 39-year-old Messi. The 19-year-old Yamal. One is Argentina’s soul, the other is Spain’s future.
       Both wear Barça No. 10—Messi wore the No. 10 shirt in Barça for 17 years, and Yamal has now taken up this banner.
A viral old photo has been circulating on social media: in 2007, Messi posed for a picture holding a baby who was only a few months old. That baby was Yamal. Nineteen years later, the two will face off head-to-head on the pitch of the World Cup final. This kind of story is something even a screenwriter wouldn’t dare to write.

Argentina vs Spain

How special is this match?
The current Euro champion takes on the current Copa America champion
A head-to-head in the World Cup final
The World Cup has been held for 96 years, and this has never happened before. Spain is the 2024 Euro champion—winning the tournament with seven straight wins, beating Italy, Germany, France, and England along the way. The quality is top-tier. Argentina is the 2024 Copa America champion—after extra time, they won 1-0 to snatch a victory over Colombia. And Argentina are also the defending World Cup champions from 2022.
Two kings from their respective continents finally meet on the World Cup final stage.

Look at the last two champions, too
🏆 2022: Argentina crowned in the Qatar World Cup final—Argentina and France played a match hailed as the “greatest final in history.” 3-3 draw, and in the penalty shootout, Argentina won 4-2. After 36 years, Argentina lifted the trophy for the third time. Messi fulfilled his dream, while Mbappé hat-tricked and still left disappointed.
🏆 2018: France won the Russia World Cup final—France beat Croatia 4-2 to lift the Hercules Cup for the second time. Mbappé was legendary in that match, and Deschamps became the third person in history to win both as a player and as a coach.

Spear vs Shield: the biggest highlight of this World Cup—strongest offense vs strongest defense—is summed up in four words: “Clash of Spear and Shield.”
Argentina: most goals, top attacking firepower—19 goals in seven matches, leading all 32 teams. Even more terrifying is this: half of their goals came after the 75th minute—custom-built to deal with every “they’ve got it locked” moment.
In the knockout stage, it’s basically “reverse course instruction”: in the Round of 16 vs Egypt, they were down 0-2, then reversed it to win 3-2.
In the quarterfinal vs Switzerland, after being leveled, they only took it in 120 minutes of extra time.
In the semifinal vs England, they were trailing all the way until the 85th minute; within seven minutes they scored two goals to seal it. Their specialty is: take the punches first, then counterattack, and finally kill the match.

Spain: fewest goals conceded, first-rate defensive gap-fixing—only 1 goal conceded in seven matches, six clean sheets, setting a World Cup record of 650 straight minutes without conceding. Average possession rate above 65%, strangling the opponent’s counterattack opportunities from the source. In the semifinal they dominated France 2-0—Mbappé barely got the ball all match. Spain’s possession-and-control system isn’t aimless passing around; it consumes you with ball control and suffocates you until you make mistakes.  

Suspense to the max
Suspense one: Can Argentina become the first team to defend the title in 64 years?
In World Cup history, the last team to successfully defend the title was Brazil in 1962. After that, for 62 years, no team could win the World Cup in consecutive editions. If Argentina win, they’ll match Germany and Italy’s record of four titles, second only to Brazil’s five.
Suspense two: Can Spain complete the double crown of Euro + World Cup?
When Spain won the World Cup in 2010, they were already the Euro defending champions. If they win again this time, they’ll become the first European team to achieve the “Euro + World Cup double crown” twice.
Suspense three: Head-to-head history—50-50. The two teams have met 14 times in history: 6 wins, 2 draws, 6 losses—perfectly balanced. World Cup finals only saw them meet once before, in the 1966 group stage, where Argentina won 2-1. Sixty years later, they meet again—directly in the final.
Suspense four: Spear vs Shield—who wins?
Argentina’s comeback gene vs Spain’s clean-sheet record.
If the match drags into the last 15 minutes, Argentina’s “late-stage killer” will show up.
If Spain keeps controlling the ball and pressing, Argentina might not even get a chance to counterattack.
