The jubilation of a nation spills over from the headlines of the Spanish press, following the victory in the final against Argentina, which brought the second World title to La Furia Roja, already European champions, 16 years after the one in 2010. The front pages of today's editions, including non-sports publications, are almost entirely devoted to the achievement of coach De la Fuente and his players.
'Campeones' is the headline of El País, which emphasizes how "La Roja was clearly superior," while for La Razón, Spain is "the best team in the world." La Vanguardia underlines that La Roja "is a two-time world champion" thanks to the goal scored in extra time by Ferran Torres, accompanying the headline with a full-page photo of the Barcelona striker. For ABC it was an "invincible Spain," which indeed won seven of the eight matches played (the only draw being against Cape Verde, in their opening World Cup game), conceding just one goal. "The kings of all time," adds Marca, emphasizing that "Spain did not just win a final" and, showing the celebrations in cities across the country, adds "We are the best." "Like the first time," is instead the headline of the other Madrid sports daily 'As.' "Spain world champions, the second star is here," headlines Mundo Deportivo. "Spain wins the second star with a bite from the 'Tiburón'," headlines Sport, referencing the nickname of striker Ferran Torres. "Spain world champions, De la Fuente's side beats Argentina with a goal from Ferran Torres" is the headline of El Mundo.
