Sydney, August 21 – The Spanish women’s national football team emerged victorious in the final of the 2023 Women’s World Cup on August 20, defeating the England team with a score of 1-0. This triumph marks the first time in history that Spain has won the prestigious tournament.

He expressed his admiration for the team’s exceptional performance, highlighting their ability to execute delicate passes and maintain control throughout the game.
Bierda commented, “In this game, we played like the Spanish team. The players make up the team, and their style also affects the style of the team. They know that they have the ability to play like this, so today’s performance was outstanding. Not only today, but they have consistently performed well in the past two months. Even after the loss to the Japanese team, our unity remained intact. This experience has strengthened our cohesion. However, it is ultimately the talent of the players that secured the victory.”

In this World Cup, we proved ourselves. I’m thrilled that we are now the champions. The previous game against Japan revitalized our team. We made tactical adjustments, and the players became stronger and more motivated. I believe it is one of the reasons we reached the final and emerged victorious.”
Remarkably, the Spanish women’s team reached the final for the first time in the history of the tournament, and the majority of their players compete in La Liga. When asked about the growth of Spanish women’s football, Bierda emphasized the importance of patience and persistence. He said, “People should be more patient. Over the past 15 years, Spanish clubs, football associations, and national teams have been steadfast in their methods and efforts. This is why we can achieve such significant victories. Today’s game is the result of many years of hard work by countless individuals. We are incredibly satisfied and proud.”
