World Cup Finals: Argentina vs. Spain Showdown!

The FIFA World Cup has culminated in a championship match between Argentina and Spain. When regulation time concludes without a clear winner, the tournament rules allow for a 30-minute extra time period, divided into two 15-minute halves. This phase features a sixth substitution opportunity for each team but no 'Golden Goal' – the full duration must be played.

If the score remains tied after extra time, the fate of the championship is determined by a penalty shootout. This high-stakes procedure involves teams taking turns from the penalty spot. If a victor isn't established within the initial five rounds, the shootout proceeds to sudden death, where a single converted penalty and a missed attempt by the opponent immediately ends the contest. The longest shootouts in World Cup history have featured up to 12 kicks, while some have concluded in as few as seven.
