Spain is world champion. The team has beaten England in the World Cup final in Australia and New Zealand. The Spanish have prevailed after a game in which England began dominating possession and having more chances. Olga Carmona opened the scoring in the 29th minute of the first half after running on the counterattack down the left flank and sending an unstoppable shot to the far post, where Earps couldn’t reach it. The England goalkeeper saved her own on several occasions. Jenni Hermoso was able to sentence the game in the second half, after the VAR awarded a penalty to Spain for a handball in the English area, but Earps saved the shot from Madrid. The English had several chances to score. Lauren Hemp, from the edge of the box, smashed the ball against the crossbar in the Lionesses’ best chance. Late in the game, England desperately searched for an equalizer, although they barely made it to Cara Coll’s box. Spain also looked for the second to sentence but the marker did not move. Spain is world champion.
