The feat achieved by Spain’s women’s Under-20 national team dominates the main headlines in Marca, As and Sport.

La Rojita won its second World Cup in the category after beating North Korea in a dramatic penalty shootout (4-3) following a 0-0 draw.

Goalkeeper Laia López emerged as the heroine by saving two decisive spot-kicks, confirming Spain’s international dominance and the bright future of Spanish women’s football.

In the men’s game, Lamine Yamal is grabbing the spotlight after his dazzling display for Spain at Wembley. Mundo Deportivo and Sport both highlight the impact of the young Barcelona winger, placing him among the top favourites for the Ballon d’Or on the very day voting closes for the award.

In the Spain camp, the negative note comes from Eric García, who drops out of the squad with a knee issue and is replaced by Le Normand.
