On the 2nd (local time), according to foreign media reports, the Penélope Cruz and Javier Bardem couple watched the Round of 32 match between Spain and Austria at the 2026 World Cup knockout stage being held at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Los Angeles (LA), in the United States.

With more than 70,000 fans filling the stadium and creating a wave of red jerseys, the couple sat side by side in comfortable attire and focused on the match of Spain’s national team, La Roja. Since meeting through the 1992 film ‘Hamon Hamon’ and marrying in 2010, the two have consistently presented themselves as die-hard supporters of Spanish soccer. Throughout the game, they showed off that they are truly serious about football—chatting warmly with each other and cheering with both hands clenched at Spain’s attacking opportunities.

On the day, it wasn’t just the Cruz and Bardem couple. Spanish global pop star Rosalia, as well as Spanish soccer legends including Carles Puyol and David Villa, also joined in large numbers, forming a massive Hollywood star family.

As if to repay the support from soccer’s powerhouse clubs, Spain, the defending European champion, carried out near-perfect pressure tactics against Austria. Starting with Mikel Oyárzabal’s precise opening goal in the 36th minute of the first half, followed by a header from Pedro Porro, a Tottenham defender, in the second half, and then Oyárzabal’s decisive multi-goal right before the end of the match, Spain routed Austria 3-0.

It was Spain’s first victory in the knockout stage at the World Cup in 16 years. With every goal, Cruz and Bardem sprang up from their seats, embraced surrounding fans, and soaked in an intense rush of joy.
