A single post written five years ago has turned the World Cup upside down, sowing fear among millions of fans around the world.

In recent hours, an old post on X (formerly Twitter) dating back to 2021 has become the talk of the town after its first part came true with terrifying accuracy, so much so that some described it as supernatural.

According to Spanish newspaper Marca, the first prophecy of the mysterious account holder who claims to be a time traveler was confirmed after the Spanish national team became the first to qualify for the 2026 World Cup final following a deserved 2-0 victory over France, a match in which Spanish media such as RTVE highlighted the clear tactical superiority of Luis de la Fuente's team.

This fulfilled prediction has once again brought the rest of the post into the spotlight, which carries a darker forecast for English fans.

Argentina just beat Spain at the 2026 World Cup final, 3-2.

A prophecy that crushes England's dream

The mysterious post indicated that the second semi-final match, which will be held tonight, will end in a humiliating defeat for the English national team at the hands of Argentina, in a match that will paralyze the world, leaving coach Thomas Tuchel's men on the verge of glory.

If this scenario comes true, the long-awaited dream final will be held in New Jersey, and will be a replay of a classic intercontinental showdown.

The British newspaper The Sun had highlighted the original post, which was literally written on July 12, 2021, and read: 'Argentina beat Spain in the 2026 World Cup final, 3-2.'
