At which stadium was the 2026 final involving Messi's Argentina scheduled?

The 2026 final involving Messi's Argentina was scheduled for MetLife Stadium.

The venue is in East Rutherford, New Jersey, in the New York metropolitan area. FIFA selected it to host the tournament final, which was scheduled for July 19, 2026, along with seven other World Cup matches.

During the tournament, FIFA referred to the venue as New York New Jersey Stadium because of its sponsorship and branding rules. That temporary tournament name does not identify a different building: it is MetLife Stadium, the shared home of the NFL's New York Giants and New York Jets.

Argentina ultimately reached the final, making the question's Messi reference literal rather than hypothetical. The other options were also 2026 World Cup venues or major NFL stadiums, which makes them plausible distractors, but AT&T Stadium, SoFi Stadium and Hard Rock Stadium were not the final venue.
