Portugal and Spain are set to renew their fierce rivalry in one of the biggest matches of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Round of 16. All eyes will be on Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo, who is expected to play his final World Cup and is one goal away from becoming the oldest player to score in consecutive World Cup knockout matches. Spain, unbeaten and yet to concede a goal in the tournament, enter the contest with rising star Lamine Yamal leading a talented young squad. The winner will secure a place in the quarter-finals.
