excuse me. i was cheering also. a huge cheer came out when carmona scored that goal. it has been very entertaining. it has been very entertaining. it has been so entertaining to see the peace, the speed, and it has paid off with that first goal. it has been a headache for england but they have been defending really well. the crowd here has been 50 50. there was a huge cheer when alessia russo went to that spanish box and treated that chance but it was deceived by the goalkeeper. but i do feel that the england fans, even though they are disappointed
woodwork. any players that have caught your eye in the first half? carmona scoring that goal, unfortunately. having people like laurenjames on the bench, that kind of talent to come on. we will let you get back to the game. if it does end up being 2 1. there is still time. let as take a look around england and spain and what is happening. madrid, the mood is pretty good. coming into this tournament the work very well regarded, but they have had players not playing,
having, and they have shown that with good conditions, they can bring success to spain, as they did today. and how will you celebrate tonight, gemma? actually, i am just behind the olympic stadium, barcelona football club is playing their first team as a local here in this new provisional stadium, so i will be working, but in barcelona especially, in madrid, there will be celebrations. and especially tomorrow, when the squad is coming back to spain, and there will be a huge parade, and they deserve it, because the truth is that alexia putellas, paredes, cata coll, 0lga carmona, they became heroes for a young generation of girls, that will hopefully be very much inspired and decide to keep on trying to be professional football players. women s football writer, carrie dunn, explained to us what could have contributed to england s defeat today. yes, it is hugely disappointing, and ultimately, spain were the better side on the day, so you have to give
momentum and more investment for women s momentum and more investment for women s football and women s sports. well, as you might expect, the celebrations have already kicked off across spain. our reporter sergi forcada freixas is in madrid and i spoke to him a little earlier. here, a party continuing. lots of people are excited about the fact they have won the world cup. some, i have to say, that have gone home already here in madrid. but others, especially youngsters, have stayed around this venue where they have been gathering, and now, they are celebrating. it was a match for spain, wasn t it? as i was saying to maddie just now, spain simply outplayed a very strong england team. yes. and i was in the stadium where 6,000 fans, some of them included, were gathered for the final. i have to say that at the beginning, there were quite a lot of nerves, but as soon as 0lga carmona scored the goal, and put spain as leading the match,
knowing the players. i keep saying this, but when i was a kid, i didn t know any of the players. all these people, teenagers and even younger, they do know 0lga carmona, alexia putellas, any of them. for some of them, they are icons. they are leaders. earlier, i was also joined by gemma soler, a spanish journalist from barcelona. i asked her to summarise for us people s reactions to spain s victory. it is an extraordinary historical day for football, for women, for women in sports. it has been a fantastic tournament, and eventually, a victory for a generation of football players who have been amazing for the last almost a decade. they managed to learn together, a lot of them in barcelona academy, and to bring that success to the spanish national team with a story that looks very much
