The Spain National Football Team will face Saudi Arabia in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The match will take place on Sunday, June 21 at 18:00 hours at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. La Roja arrives at the World Cup as one of the favorites to win the title after winning the Euro 2024 and being finalists of the last Nations League. Although some players arrive with little experience due to physical problems they suffered in the final of the season, all of them will be ready for the next matches that await the Red. The rival of Spain in the second match of this 2026 World Cup will be Saudi Arabia, a team that already knows what it is to beat a great champion like Argentina. They did it in the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, where they surprised Messi's team with two goals in the second half to win 2-1. It will be the fifth time that both teams will face each other, with the statistics of the national team: Spain won in the previous four matches. The Saudi team, directed by Georgios Donis after the dismissal of Hervé Renard in April, arrives with Salem Al-Dawsari, from Al-Hilal, as the team's main star. The match between Spain and Saudi Arabia, belonging to the second round of Group H, will take place on Sunday, June 21 at 18:00 hours at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. Subsequently, in the third round, the Luis de la Fuente team will face the Uruguay team, directed by Marcelo Bielsa. That match against Fede Valverde's team will take place on Friday, June 26, although in Spain it will actually start on the morning of Saturday, June 27, as it will take place at 02:00 hours at night.
