On the way to the gold, Spain defeated several major nations - Portugal, Belgium, France, and in the final it was 1-0 against Argentina. Ferran Torres became the great match hero when he scored the decisive goal in extra time.
"I'm so happy to see the joy in the children's eyes. Now is the time to celebrate for all Spaniards," says Torres.
Rodri, the midfielder who was also named the tournament's best player, says the title is the biggest of his career. The 30-year-old has also won several Premier League titles and a Champions League with club side Manchester City.
Winning with the national team cannot be compared to anything else. Especially a World Cup. This generation grew up watching Casillas and Iniesta lift the World Cup trophy (Spain's first, which came in 2010). It's very big for us to do the same.
