August 20, 2023 will be an unforgettable date for Spanish football. The Spanish women’s team has made history. The team led by Jorge Vilda has been proclaimed world champion for the first time after defeating England in the 2023 World Cup final, thanks to a salutary goal by Olga Carmona.
For the girls, it is their first star, but the men’s team had already won it 13 years ago, in South Africa 2010. Therefore, this victory for the girls represents a new milestone for Spanish football, since it can boast that its two senior teams, men’s and feminine, they are world champions.
