One of Spains most impressive players, Salma Paralluelo, a three times MVP this tournament, celebrates euphorically.

Jorge Vilda, the head architect

The victory belongs to a group of players capable of fighting on the pitch and getting along, but much of the credit goes to Jorge Vilda, the head architect of the team who believed in them from the very begging.

A goal for the history books

Olga Carmona was the one who scored the winning goal against England in the 27th minute. Born in Seville and, according to Vanity Fair, her family wanted her to pursue a career in dance and flamenco dancing however, she dove right into her passion which was football.

Alexia Putellas, big moral support

Alexia Putellas is considered the best soccer player in the world but in this World Cup, she barely had any minutes on the pitch. Due to recent injuries, the coach decided to keep her on the bench. She played just a few minutes against England.

Queen and infanta with the winners

Letizia, Queen of Spain, and her daughter, Infanta Sofía, came to support Spain in Sydney. They joined the celebration!

A magical moment

Another snapshot of Salma Paralluelo on the pitch, basking in the glory and immortalizing the moment with a smartphone.

A good game

The chronicles speak of an excellent match in which Spain knew how to defend a narrow result and reach the end with an advantage.

Magical moment

Obviously, in Spain everyone talks about Olga Carmona as the heroine of the match, being the woman who scored the goal.

A memory for the eternity

The game brings up a lot of memories of those Spaniards who witnessed the men's national team win their first World Cup in 2010. Olga Carmona's goal resonates a lot with Andres Iniestas's goal. These two goals have changed Spanish football history forever.

A new era?

The young Spanish team has a bright future, this great victory could be the beginning of a great era.
