Spain have triumphed at the World Cup, beating Argentina 1-0 in the final to win their second gold star, following their win in 2010.
Their victory has also fuelled the Trump Curse theory, as he revealed he was backing Argentina to win, saying: “It’s hard to bet against Messi.”
Speaking to Fox ahead of the match, Trump described Argentinian president Javier Milei as a “friend of mine” who has done a “terrific job”, and joined Benjamin Netanyahu in backing Argentina.
