Argentina defender Lisandro Martinez was subbed off the pitch in the first half during the FIFA World Cup 2026 Final against Spain in New Jersey on Sunday.

    The 28-year-old centre-back had to be taken off due to an injury, with Nicolas Otamendi coming on to replace him with the scores still at 0-0.

    Lisandro, who had provided an assist and a goal against against Cape Verde earlier in the tournament, had already picked a yellow card for a foul on Lamine Yamal.
