MADRID, 20 Ago. (EUROPA PRESS) –
The midfielder of the Spanish team Aitana Bonmatí was chosen the ‘Golden Ball’ of the World Cup, an award that distinguishes the best player of the championship that Australia and New Zealand hosted and that concluded this Sunday with the title for Spain.
The 25-year-old FC Barcelona footballer signed a great tournament, especially in the opening match against Costa Rica and in the round of 16 against Switzerland, while her figure also grew in the final against England, especially in a great second part. The Catalan, who scored three goals in the tournament, thus emerges as a great favorite for the next Ballon d’Or after having also been chosen the best in the Champions League that she crowned her club.
It was not the only individual award that a player from the new world champion won, since the Spanish forward Salma Paralluelo, 19 years old and the author of two key goals in the quarterfinals and semifinals, was distinguished as the best youngster of this World Cup, in the one who has become the first player to be absolute world champion, Under-20 and Under-17. The English Mary Earps and the Japanese Hinata Miyazawa were recognized as the best goalkeeper and the ‘Golden Boot’ (5 goals).
