Lionel Messi's Argentina won the 2022 World Cup in Qatar

The Finalissima between Argentina and Spain has been cancelled because of the war in the Middle East.

European champions Spain were set to play Copa America champions Argentina in Qatar on 26 March.

Uefa said proposals to hold the match at Real Madrid's Bernabeu, or play a two-legged game in Madrid and Buenos Aires, were rejected by Argentina.

Uefa said: "Due to the current political situation in the region, the Finalissima cannot be played as hoped in Qatar.
