OUTCOME
CONFIRMED TRUESpain defeated Argentina 1-0 in extra time in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final on July 19, 2026, winning the title exactly as Broussard predicted. Spain's defense was historic — they conceded just 1 goal across 8 matches, the fewest ever by a World Cup champion, and recorded 7 clean sheets, a World Cup record — fully validating the claim about Spain having the best defense in World Cup history.
