Feliciano López used social networks to respond to journalist Danae Boronat. The Catalan wrote the following comment after the Spanish women’s team qualified for the World Cup final: «Success of some players who are very good. That show that they deserve all the support from institutions, federation, clubs, etc. They have done it on their own.”
With all respect, today is a day to congratulate players and technical staff. No one in professional sports wins alone, not even in individual sports. I am very sorry but this was very unfortunate. Even if you don’t like it, they didn’t make history on their own.

Feliciano López did not like that the journalist said that they had “achieved it on their own.” Therefore, he did not hesitate to respond with the following message: «With all due respect, today is a day to congratulate the players and coaching staff. No one in professional sports wins alone, not even in individual sports. I am very sorry, but this has been very unfortunate. Even if you don’t like it, they haven’t made history alone.
The Spanish women’s soccer team made history this Tuesday by qualifying for the World Cup final in Australia and New Zealand after beating Sweden 2-1 in a very close semifinal and which was decided in their favor in a hectic final stretch, with a goal in the 89th minute by Olga Carmona.
Spain got the ticket for Sydney next Sunday, a milestone for a team that carried out a very competitive match against a very experienced rival and that had hit them hard when they were already touching the final with their fingers. But, when it seemed that she would be doomed to another extra time, she found the loophole to knock down a rival who put up the expected resistance and slip into the fight for World Cup glory against the winner of Australia-England.
There were ten minutes of maximum tension, those that passed between Salma Paralluelo’s goal, once again decisive, and Olga Carmona’s decisive one, just after Rebecka Blomqvist had repeated the story of the quarterfinals. This time an extra half hour was not needed and Spanish women’s football broke down a barrier that it had been trying to pull down for a long time and supported by a wonderful generation of players.
To face this semifinal, Jorge Vilda gave another twist to Spain’s approach and this time he chose to bring in more associative players with the entry of Alexia Putellas and the substitution of Esther González, starter against Switzerland and the Netherlands, to play with Jenni Hermoso for reference above.
