The Spanish men's national football team plans to celebrate in Madrid with fans on Monday afternoon if they manage to defeat Argentina in the 2026 World Cup final this Sunday. After their last victory 1-0 against Argentina (2026-07-19), La Roja, who arrive with five consecutive wins (5W-0D-0L), aim to lift the trophy at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. The celebration in the Spanish capital would start from the Moncloa interchange heading to Cibeles Square, the epicenter of the national team's historical celebrations.
Where and when would the celebration be?
The Government Delegate in Madrid, Francisco Martín, confirmed that the route would begin at the Moncloa interchange, with a highlight at Cibeles Square. The operation would include 500 national police officers and 150 civil guards to ensure security. The Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) will define the final details of the itinerary.
What's next for Spain?
After the World Cup, Spain prepares for their next match, a friendly against England on September 26, 2026. Meanwhile, the team, with their unbeaten streak of five games, seeks to consolidate their dominance on the international stage.
Why Cibeles?
Cibeles Square is a historic symbol for Spanish football fans, where the team's greatest triumphs, such as the Euro 2024, have been celebrated. The celebration in this place, after a possible World Cup victory, would reaffirm the connection between the team and its supporters.
