The question "How long is extra time in football?" became the most searched query on Google in Spain over the past 24 hours, reaching a 20-year historical peak. This surge in interest occurred immediately after the World Cup final concluded.

According to Google Trends data, the top five search queries in Spain were related to the match and the Spanish national team. These included "Where is Ferran Torres from?", "When does the Spanish team arrive in Madrid?", "When is Spain's celebration if they win the World Cup?", "Who scored Spain's World Cup goal?", and "What team does Ferran Torres play for?".

Following the final whistle and Spain's victory, consumer interest also spiked. "Spain jersey 2 stars" became the second highest national trend, alongside searches for "new Spain jersey". This indicates a strong public desire to commemorate the win.

Interestingly, after their defeat, Argentina emerged as the number one country globally for searching information about the 2030 World Cup in the subsequent 24 hours. On an international level, a widely shared photograph of Lionel Messi bathing Lamine Yamal when he was a baby became the top trending image worldwide.
