FIFA has set a new record for World Cup prize money, distributing $871 million to the 48 participating teams. The winning nation, Spain, will receive $51 million, while the runner-up, Argentina, earns $34 million. This increased payout reflects lobbying efforts from federations, particularly in Europe, who sought greater compensation for tournament costs and compared it to the larger sums awarded in other FIFA competitions like the Club World Cup.
