The match served as a testing ground for players, tactics, and fan engagement ahead of the biggest competition in the world.

My Role

Based on previous accredited coverage, I was recognized as an independent journalist and granted media access through the organizers’ selection process, without affiliation to either team.

I was accredited as a photographer, covered the official post-match press conference, conducted post-match interviews, and produced on-field visual coverage, capturing goals, celebrations, and key match moments in a professional, event-aligned manner.

Impact

This coverage demonstrated my ability to document international matches through a human-first lens, blending journalism with social media storytelling to connect global football moments with a Latino audience.
