Finally the Women’s World Cup is being taken seriously here in Spain after they were crowned champions after defeating reigning European champions England 1–0 in the final. It was Spain’s first title, as well as being the first European nation to win it since 2007. Spain became the second nation to win both the women’s and men’s World Cup since Germany in the 2003 edition.
This year’s competition took place in New Zealand and Australia. The final match saw lots of great action as you can see here. See if you can understand the commentator.
