Argentina manager Lionel Scaloni was visibly overcome with emotion at his post-match press conference on Sunday, breaking down in tears as he reflected on his future following his side's defeat to Spain in the FIFA World Cup 2026 final.

Scaloni struggled to compose himself as he addressed reporters, with questions about what lies ahead for him as Argentina's manager clearly hitting close to home in the wake of such a painful result.

The defeat marks a devastating end to what had been a historic campaign for Argentina, who arrived at the final as one of the tournament's most closely watched sides.

Spain claimed the FIFA World Cup 2026 title at Argentina's expense, leaving Scaloni to face an uncertain future at the helm of the national team — and, evidently, a great deal of personal anguish.
