Argentina continued to labor after the interval. Moments after the restart, Rodrigo De Paul lost possession in midfield and Alex Baena surged forward only to see his deflected shot saved by Martinez.

　　The Aston Villa goalkeeper then spilled a chance from Olmo before gathering a tame Torres header from the resultant corner.

　　Spain moved the ball with greater authority as the game progressed. Substitute Pedri shot straight at Martinez when he had time and space to do better and Facundo Medina did well to punt the ball out of danger after Yamal"s run and cross.

　　Argentina"s defense was under siege and it could thank Martinez for not conceding late in normal time. He was again on hand to palm away Cubarsi"s dipping attempt before turning Yamal"s free-kick around the post.

　　Fernandez was dismissed in the third minute of stoppage time for clipping Cubarsi as the Barcelona defender stormed forward on the counterattack, earning him a second booking.

　　Spain had the better chances early in extra-time but Martinez kept his team in the game with a fingertip save from Nico Williams" header.

　　The deadlock was finally broken when Nico Williams met Pedro Porro"s cross at the back post, heading the ball into the path of Torres who swept home a powerful finish to leave Martinez with no chance.

　　Giuliano Simeone had a chance to equalize but sent a shot over the bar following a corner as Spain held on to seal the title.
