Spain advances toward an unprecedented World Cup final to be held in Australia and New Zealand this Tuesday. With two changes to the starting lineup, Alexia Putellas returns to ownership of the midfield and Olga Carmona steps in for the suspended Oihane Hernández, reshaping the team’s approach for the clash.
Spain and Sweden meet at Eden Park in Auckland as fans search for tickets to the final from 10:00 in New Zealand time. The matchup promises a test of tact and endurance as both teams seek a place in history.
Spain’s likely starting XI includes Cata Coll; Ona Batlle, Irene Paredes, Laia Codina, Olga Carmona; Teresa Abelleira, Aitana Bonmatí, Alexia Putellas; Alba Redondo, Mariona Caldentey, Jenni Hermoso. This configuration balances defense and dynamic attack, leveraging Putellas’ vision and Carmona’s service out wide.
