Spain beats England - 23rd August 2023
Spain are the new first time champions of the 2023 Women's World Cup. The venue, Stadium Australia in Sydney was packed with 76,000 fans who witnessed the moment Spain scored their winning goal against England. Fans from around the world tuned in to the exciting match.
Spanish captain Olga Carmona secured an early goal which was the only goal of the match. But the team had another shot at a goal in the second half from a penalty kick. However, the English goalkeeper, Mary Earps blocked it, leaving the score 1-0 to Spain. At the sound of the final whistle, Spanish fans were overjoyed. Meanwhile, England fans cried tears of disappointment.
Elena Kerstjens: "It was amazing since minute one. It was great."
Arturojimenez De Parga: "I think overall we had more chances. England had one post, I think. We had a couple of chances. Their goalkeeper was really good but we missed a penalty. So I think we're, yeah, we deserved the victory."
Juliet Mason: "It was so close, could have gone another way. And yeah we were just, just a little bit unlucky on the day. Just didn't quite click, but yeah we're so proud of the girls, just disappointed for them because it was, it could have gone the other way. Fine margins in football."
Australia and New Zealand hosted the tournament over one month. The sport has received the biggest support in its history. Hopefully with the success of the competition, women footballers will also enjoy greater success. Many of the players have been pushing their national federations for better pay. They'd like to be treated equally to male footballers.
Only 50 years ago women were prohibited from playing the sport in the UK. This is still the case in many countries today. London student Jolie Hill, is moved to tears by the women's accomplishments.
Jolie Hill: "Everyone thought I was crying cause we lost, but I'm crying cause we done, they done us so proud. As women in society today, we can prove that we can do better than what the men -- well, as good as what the men can do, you know. Like, we've got, come to a final. The fact that like 50-60 years ago, we weren't even allowed to play football in this country, and now we're here in the final of the Women's World Cup... I'm so proud of them. Like, genuinely, it, it does bring a tear to my eye."
