Luis de la Fuente Says Spain Have Peaked at the Right Time After Reaching FIFA World Cup 2026 Final

By IANS News July 15, 2026 • 08:51 AM View: 732

Spain coach Luis de la Fuente said his team had reached their peak at the perfect moment and recaptured the spirit of the 2010 edition after a 2-0 win sent La Roja into its first FIFA World Cup final since lifting the trophy 16 years ago.

Mikel Oyarzabal converted a penalty in the 22nd minute, and Pedro Porro added a second just before the hour mark as Spain subdued one of the tournament favourites in Dallas.
