The countdown has begun for the FIFA World Cup decider
Preparations are well underway for Monday morning’s FIFA World Cup final, with European champions Spain up against the reigning world champions, Argentina.
Spain is striving to secure its second men’s World Cup, and become the first nation to hold both the men’s and women’s titles at the same time.
Argentina seeks to lift the trophy for a fourth time, and become the first back-to-back champions in the men’s tournament in over 60 years.
Meanwhile, health concerns continue over bushfire smoke blanketing the area where the final will be held.
