Le sol espagnol a littéralement tremblé à trois moments clés de la finale de la Coupe du monde de dimanche
Malgré une domination sur l'Argentine pendant près de deux heures, l'Espagne n'a réussi à percer la défense de Dibu Martínez en finale de la Coupe du monde qu'à la 106e minute. Le but de Ferran Torres a déclenché une explosion de joie chez des millions d'Espagnols.
Comme cela arrive souvent lors d'événements sportifs majeurs qui captivent toute une nation, les célébrations de buts ont provoqué des vibrations au sol détectées par des sismomètres. Cette finale, étant la première de l'Espagne depuis 16 ans, a vu des millions de personnes suivre le match en direct, et le sol a tremblé à trois moments cruciaux, comme l'a révélé le Conseil supérieur de la recherche scientifique (CSIC).
Ces vibrations, enregistrées par les réseaux de l'Institut géographique national (IGN) et de l'Institut géologique et cartographique de Catalogne (ICCG) dans des stations réparties dans toute l'Espagne, montrent trois pics distincts durant le match, simultanément visibles sur les capteurs du réseau. Ces moments clés étaient : le but de Torres à la 106e minute, un but antérieur de Nico Williams annulé par le VAR pour une raison inexplicable, et la secousse la plus intense de la soirée, le coup de sifflet final confirmant la victoire.
Un pic plus faible a également été enregistré lors d'un autre but refusé à Torres pour hors-jeu, ainsi que lors de la levée du trophée quelques minutes plus tard.
Le CSIC explique que cette sismicité d'origine anthropique est généralement imperceptible dans notre vie quotidienne et a déjà été observée lors d'événements similaires dans d'autres villes du monde. Ce qui rend ces enregistrements particulièrement uniques, c'est que les signaux ne proviennent pas des stades, mais des quartiers et des foyers où les gens regardaient les matchs.
À titre d'exemple, lors de la finale de l'Euro 2024, des pics similaires avaient été enregistrés lors des buts de Nico Williams et Mikel Oyarzabal. Durant cette Coupe du monde, des vibrations comparables avaient déjà été captées dès le match des huitièmes de finale contre le Portugal.

Spanish Soil Literally Shook at Three Key Moments in Sunday's World Cup Final
Although they dominated Argentina for nearly two hours, Spain couldn't breach Dibu Martínez's guard in the World Cup final until the 106th minute. Ferran Torres's goal made millions in Spain erupt in jubilation.
As is often the case during major matches that capture the attention of an entire country, goal celebrations cause ground vibrations detected by seismometers. And as this was Spain's first World Cup final in 16 years, millions were watching the match live, jumping at three key moments, reveals the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).
These vibrations, captured by the networks of the National Geographic Institute (IGN) and the Cartographic and Geological Institute of Catalonia (ICCG) in stations spread across Spain, show three distinct peaks during the match, simultaneously visible on the network's sensors. These were Torres's goal in the 106th minute, an earlier goal by Nico Williams inexplicably disallowed by VAR, and the most intense tremor of the evening – the final whistle, when victory was confirmed.
A more modest peak was registered when Torres scored another disallowed goal for offside, and when they lifted the trophy a few minutes later.
The CSIC explains that this seismicity caused by human activity is imperceptible in our daily lives and has been observed in several cities worldwide. What makes these recordings unique is that the signals did not originate from stadiums, but from neighborhoods and homes where people were watching the matches.
For instance, in the 2024 UEFA Euro final, similar peaks were recorded during goals by Nico Williams and Mikel Oyarzabal, and during this World Cup, comparable vibrations were detected as early as the round of 16 match against Portugal.
