By WNews 1 Min Read

Spain won its first Women’s World Cup title less than a year after a player rebellion, holding off England 1-0 on Sunday in Sydney after Olga Carmona’s first-half goal.

Spain’s first major international trophy made it the first European team to win the Women’s World Cup since Germany in 2007.

At the final whistle the Spanish players piled on each other in front of their goal.

Carmona’s left-foot shot in the 29th minute went into the far corner of the net and just out of reach of diving England goalkeeper Mary Earps.
