WHAT HAPPENED? The 2010 World Cup winner and Real Madrid legend, Ramos, put a congratulatory message on his Instagram stories for the nation's women's side after their successful run to the World Cup final in Australia and New Zealand.
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Spain, in their first-ever Women's World Cup semi-final, beat Sweden to reach their maiden World Cup final. Second-half substitute, Salma Paralluelo, once again proved to be the difference maker and then captain Olga Carmona put Spain ahead after Sweden equalized late in the game.
