Spain’s Dani Olmo showed defiance after winning the 2026 World Cup when asked about Argentina turning their backs on Spain during the trophy presentation in New York.
“We don’t care. What matters are the values you want to convey. We are an example for many generations, and I think they should be too. Now, we’re going to enjoy it,” Olmo told reporters.
Tensions ran high after the final whistle, with Leandro Paredes clashing with Eric Garcia and Gavi. Argentina’s assistant coach Roberto Ayala was also caught on camera punching Olmo amid the chaos.
Despite the turmoil, Olmo remained focused on the importance of values and being a positive example, illustrating his composed mindset following a tense World Cup final.
