Spain is on the doorstep of something historic at the two thousand twenty six World Cup. La Roja have been nearly untouchable defensively throughout this tournament, conceding the fewest goals of any side in the competition, and now they stand one match away from lifting the trophy and cementing a legacy that stretches back to that iconic two thousand ten final in South Africa.
Speaking of that final, it was a brutal affair — fourteen yellow cards handed out as Spain edged through to claim their first ever World Cup title. Now they get a chance to do it again, and the footballing world is watching to see if this generation can match the greatness of that squad.
Meanwhile in Boston, the Celtics are leaning all the way into the Jayson Tatum era. The franchise dropped a new promotional poster inspired by Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, casting Tatum as the franchise centerpiece following the Jaylen Brown trade to Philadelphia. NBA fans online had thoughts — plenty of them — and not all of them were flattering, but love it or hate it, the Celtics are making clear this is Tatum's team now.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
