Luis De la Fuente has labelled Argentina's actions after the World Cup final as "intolerable" and "unacceptable".

Spain won the 2026 World Cup after defeating Argentina 1-0 in the showpiece match, thanks to Ferran Torres' extra-time winner.

La Roja are now unbeaten in their last 38 matches in all competitions, the longest ever run by any European or South American team, though some of their spotlight was taken away after the final whistle.

After the referee signalled the end of the match, Argentina's Leandro Paredes was involved in a scuffle with Spain's Gavi, while Nahuel Molina was involved in a separate incident.

De la Fuente admitted he did not see the events during his celebrations, while FIFA are now investigating the situation.

"At the time, I didn't realise it. I was celebrating, hugging teammates," De la Fuente told Spanish television.

"But in any case, it is intolerable, unacceptable, it cannot be allowed.

"Players of that stature, whom I praised in the days leading up to the match and continue to praise, who are great players with a tremendous coach, surely they must have felt just as bad as we did seeing those reactions."

Spain won the World Cup for the second time, after 2010, meaning that seven of the eight winners of the tournament have now won it at least twice – England are the only nation with a solitary victory.

La Roja also conceded just one goal in their eight games at the 2026 World Cup, the fewest goals conceded by any team in a World Cup winning campaign.
