Estimated 50,000 fans pack Great Lawn in Central Park for World Cup final

Around 50,000 fans packed into the Great Lawn in Central Park for what organizers are calling the largest World Cup watch party in the world. Hannah Klieger is there live with more on the fan action. Hannah, what was it like out there? Alan, people have been telling me all day that if you can't go and see the game live in person, this is the very next thing. And that's because of this. Take a look at this giant dance party that erupted on the lawn after Spain's historic win. People were celebrating by the hundreds here in Central Park. Giant screens, a party with tens of thousands of locals and visitors, eyes glued to the screens. Boy, the crowds enjoyed plenty of photo ops and the electrifying halftime show had people on their feet. The fans, they really showed up. I was waiting so much for them to go and I'm so happy Spain, Spain hit that goal. You felt it. You held your breath for a second. You saw everything was good and it was like, wow, let's do it. Amazing. People came out for their love of soccer and their desire for a good game and they got that here. Boy, what a roller coaster of emotions. But for now, we're live in Central Park. Hannah Klieger, CBS News, New York. Final score was 1-0 and somehow it felt even closer than that. All right, Hannah, thank you. So Spain and Argentina went into extra time and, of course, Spain is the one that ended up pulling it off there. Otis Livingston is live in our virtual studio with much more on the ins and outs of the match. Otis, this was a good one. It certainly was, Alan, and the reason we're doing all this wall-to-wall coverage, of course, is the World Cup final match itself. It's the culmination of an exciting tournament taking place right in our own backyard at New York-New Jersey Stadium where Spain outlasted Argentina to win just its second World Cup in its nation's history. Two of the Cup favorites meeting on the pitch with so much at stake. Of course, it would come down to a thrilling finish very early in the second half of extra time. Ferran Torres drives one into the back of the net. That proves to be the World Cup winner for Spain. Now, Argentina had a few chances for the equalizer, but they just couldn't get it done. So Spain is the 2026 World Champion. Of course, we'll have much more coming up later on in sports. And Alan, to piggyback off something that you made famous, if you don't like that match, you don't like football. You don't like football. Spain wins. Spain wins. Otis, we'll see you later on in sports. Thank you.
