The dream of winning the Women’s World Cup Sub-17 held in India for the Colombian women’s team came to an end this Sunday when falling in the final 1-0 against Spain, which won its second consecutive Cup in that category.
Although Colombia arrived with great chances of winning the championship due to what had been done in the previous stages, the final ended up being decided in the most unexpected way: with an own goal from the coffee defense itself.
In the play, Ana Guzmán rejected a Spanish shot from the ground against her goal, after a center that walked through the South American area; Carlos Paniagua’s players tried to clear to the limit, but the ball had already completely crossed the goal line.
Previously, the Spanish team led by Kenio Gonzalo approached the goal with a couple of shots in the first half of Cristina Librán, who at the beginning of the second half scored a goal that did not go up to the scoreboard by hand, after consultation with e VAR.
The Colombian reaction came through its star Linda Caicedo and, after conceding Ana Guzmán’s goal, the coffee pots turned to the Spanish area but the orderly defense of the Ibéricas spoiled their chances of seeking extra time and the Spanish team was even able to increase their advantage with a shot that was rejected by the pole.
After the award ceremony, the Colombian Caicedo received the Bronze Boot as the third best scorer in the tournament (4 goals) and the Silver Ball for the second most important player in the tournament.
The Spanish and Colombian women played the final in the same stadium where they began their career for this competition, located in the financial city of Bombay; at that time, La Roja also beat the coffee makers 1-0.
With this achievement, the Spanish team showed why they started as great favorites to win this championship, after already winning the trophy in the edition of 2018 In uruguay.
