Spain's women's national team defeated England 4-0, securing their position at the top of their qualifying group for the World Cup. Key players included Patri Guijarro and Alexia Putellas, who both scored in the match.
Spain's women's national team put on a football masterclass in Palma de Mallorca, beating England — their great rival on the international stage — by a resounding 4-0. With this result, the national side moves to the top of its qualifying group with just one matchday remaining. The match, a repeat of the most recent World Cup and European Championship finals, got off to a perfect start for the home side. Patri Guijarro opened the scoring in front of her fans with a powerful strike from outside the box that took a deflection off an opposing defender. Shortly after, Alexia Putellas doubled the lead before halftime after receiving an assist from Mariona. In the second half, Spain's dominance was absolute. Alexia grabbed her brace by pouncing on a rebound in the six-yard box, and England was completely out of the picture. The icing on the cake was added by Claudia Pina, who sealed the fourth and final goal after a brilliant pass from Aitana Bonmatí. With the three points and the head-to-head advantage, Sonia Bermúdez's side has its fate in its own hands. If they beat Iceland in Reykjavik next Tuesday, they will book their direct ticket to the 2027 World Cup in Brazil.
