FIFA Legends Light Up Rockefeller Center Before World Cup final
FIFA Legends gathered at New York's Rockefeller Center on Friday for an exhibition match ahead of Sunday's FIFA World Cup final between Spain and defending champions Argentina. Asked about the famous photo of Lionel Messi bathing a baby Lamine Yamal, former Spain defender Fernando Hierro said the image feels "like a movie," highlighting the remarkable contrast between a player still competing at the age of 39 and a teenager who is now playing in his first World Cup. He added that while everyone knows what Messi means to Argentina, the final will be decided by the teams rather than individual players. Former Spain defender MÃchel Salgado described the final as "50-50," saying Argentina has repeatedly come from behind during the tournament, while Spain will also be difficult to beat if it controls the game.
