🗣️ Lionel Scaloni: "I want to put Argentinians' minds at ease." "It’s just a football match; we’ve got the experience of the last World Cup. We know that the first match isn’t crucial..." "We’re calm. We’re up against a great team."
🚨| Despite coming on in the 71st minute, Lamine Yamal completed (5) dribbles, more than any other player in the goalless draw between Spain and Cabo Verde.

🚨🇪🇸 Spain's opening-game struggles at the World Cup continue.
In four of their last five tournaments, La Roja have failed to win their first match:
❌ 2010: 0-1 vs Switzerland
❌ 2014: 1-5 vs Netherlands
🤝 2018: 3-3 vs Portugal
✅ 2022: 7-0 vs Costa Rica
🤝 2026: 0-0 vs Cape Verde
A shock start for the reigning European champions and one of the pre-tournament favourites. 😳🏆🌍
🚨 FIFA has launched a probe into assistant VAR Shaun Evans following a gesture he allegedly made that has been associated with far-right extremist symbolism.
The Australian referee is now under official VAR review. ⚠️

🇪🇸 Spain players will receive no bonus payment if they are eliminated before the World Cup quarter-finals. 💰❌
The same high-pressure incentive system was used at Euro 2024, where La Roja went on to win the tournament. 🏆
