Spain forward Ferran Torres became the hero of the FIFA World Cup 2026 final by scoring the extra-time winner in his team's 1-0 victory over Argentina. Years before his historic strike, Torres first showcased his talent in India during the FIFA U-17 World Cup in 2017. Then a 17-year-old, he helped Spain reach the final with 2 goals and 2 assists while playing in Kochi and Kolkata. Torres was named Player of the Match after his winning goal in New York, joining Andrés Iniesta as the only Spaniards to score a World Cup-winning goal for their country. (PC: NDTV)
