Sydney, Aug 21 (Ians) A new name has been etched onto the FIFA Women’s World Cup trophy as Spain became the fifth team to win the title after beating England 1-0 here on Sunday.
Olga Carmona took center stage as her 29th-minute strike ensured that Spain become the second country after Germany to have won both men’s and women’s World Cup titles, with Spain’s men having triumphed in 2010, reports Xinhua.
Spain’s Aitana Bonmati and Salma Paralluelo won the Golden Ball and Best Young Player awards respectively. England’s Mary Earps was awarded the Golden Glove award, while the Golden Boot went to Japan’s Hinata Miyazawa, who scored a tournament-high five goals.
The fully-packed Stadium Australia hosted two sides who were reaching the tournament’s final for the first time, as England had knocked out co-hosts Australia 3-1, while Spain had seen off Sweden with a hard-fought 2-1 victory.

Sydney, Australia, Aug 21 (Ians) Following England’s runner-up finish to Spain at the FIFA Women’s World Cup on Sunday, head coach Sarina Wiegman expressed her disappointment but remained hopeful for future performances.
“It’s hard to take now. We did everything, we’ve overcome a lot of challenges. It feels really bad,” the 53-year-old Dutch coach was quoted as saying by Xinhua. “We can be very proud of ourselves, though it doesn’t feel that way at this moment; that takes a little bit of time.”
“We were very close,” she remarked. “We struggled to retain possession in the first half, prompting a switch to a 4-3-3 formation. I believe the change improved our gameplay in the second half.”
Despite goalkeeper Mary Earps’ pivotal penalty save providing a glimmer of hope, England was undone by Olga Carmona’s decisive strike.

Spain have defeated England’s Lionesses to win the women’s soccer World Cup.
Despite a missed penalty, the victorious Spanish team took the trophy after winning 1-0, the difference being a first half goal by Olga Carmona, who finished smartly following a loose run by England’s Lucy Bronze.
England felt like favorites going into the 70,000 sellout game in Melbourne but Spain dominated throughout and had more chances. They failed to convert good semi-final form onto the biggest stage and England’s long wait for a first World Cup final win continues, although England did win the Euros last year. King Charles and his son Prince William had earlier wished the Lionesses good luck via video messages.
The players were nervy at the start but Spain played the better football in the first half and it wasn’t overly surprising when Carmona scored, with England completely losing their shape.

Canberra, Aug 16 (Ians) Australian coach Tony Gustavsson has kept the nation in suspense over whether captain Sam Kerr will start for the Matildas in their first World Cup semifinal.
The Matildas will play reigning European champion England on Wednesday night in front of an expected crowd of more than 75,000 people at Stadium Australia. The winner will face Spain in Sunday’s final, reports Xinhua.
This marks the first time Australia has ever competed in a World Cup semifinal. Meanwhile, England has become the second team to make the last four at three consecutive Women’s World Cups.
Speaking on the eve of the match, Gustavsson remained coy about whether Kerr, Australia’s all-time leading scorer, would be in his starting XI.
The leading striker missed the group stage due to a calf injury but has come off the bench in both knockout matches, including for 65 minutes in the penalty shoot-out win over France.
