The 80 minutes that went without scoring was a preview of the great game that unfolded in the last 10 minutes.

In the 36th minute of the second half, when Hermoso’s sharp cross hit the Swedish defense and flowed, Spain’s Parayuello connected it with his right foot.

The 19-year-old striker, who was the main character of the winning goal in the quarterfinals overtime, was substituted again this time and scored the decisive goal.

However, the Swedish counterattack was also formidable.

In the 43rd minute of the second half, when Hurtig dropped the ball with his head, Blomkvist turned the game around with a sensational volley.

The moment everyone had a premonition of overtime, Spain still had a plan.

A corner kick obtained just a minute after conceding the goal defied the Swedish defense’s expectations and went to Carmona, and the goal-scoring defender Carmona opened the door to the final with a superb left foot.

The Spanish coach couldn’t contain his joy as he ran down the touchline as the goal came to seal a dramatic 2-1 victory.

Spain, who had a record of 4 draws and 7 losses, surpassed Sweden at the most crucial moment and reached the World Cup finals for the first time ever.

After the game, the friendship between the two players that transcended victory or defeat caught the eye.

Sweden’s Rolfo, who changed his uniform, congratulated his Barcelona teammate Bonmati from Spain.

Miracle team Spain will challenge the new history by winning their first victory against the winner of the Australia-England match on the 20th.
