Spain beat Argentina in the 2026 World Cup final, with Ferran Torres scoring the only goal of the match.

The two teams could not be separated in 90 minutes, with Torres netting the only goal in extra time to hand his country a second World Cup.

Amid the celebrations, Taylor Swift fans have found old clips of the forward using Swift’s songs in social media posts and speaking about the singer.

Fans find out Spanish soccer player Ferran Torres likes Taylor Swift

In turn, a number have taken to social media to show their love for the World Cup winner after finding out that he is a ‘Swiftie’.

One fan wrote: “Ferran Torres is hot and a Swiftie. The right country won.”

A second posted on X: “Ferran Torres is a Swiftie and gave us the second [World Cup star]? Oh man, I couldn’t love you more.”

Another added: “Ferran Torres is a Swiftie, which is why he was tayblessed to score the winning goal oh wow.”

A fourth tweeted: “Our Swiftie Ferran Torres is so cute, deciding the game!”

“Ferran Torres, who scored the ONLY goal during the final of World Cup 2026 is a Swiftie omg,” commented a fifth.

Another stated: “Torres being a Swiftie is just the cherry on top; he couldn’t get any hotter.”

While a seventh wrote: “Just finding out that Ferran Torres is a Swiftie. Not only is he a world champion, plays for Barcelona, and on top of that, he’s part of the best fandom in history THE KING.”

And another shared an edit of all the times Torres has used the singer’s songs on social media while also speaking about her.

Plenty of celebrities attended the World Cup final in which Torres scored the winner, but on the day, Swift was not spotted.

However, we do know Taylor attended a soccer match between Brazil and Haiti at this summer’s tournament, where she reportedly paid for windows as she ‘wanted her guests to be air-conditioned’.
