    Spain's World Cup-winning squad returned to Madrid for an open-top bus parade after defeating Argentina 1-0 in the final. Yamal was at the centre of the celebrations, taking the microphone to sing Bad Bunny songs as supporters lined the streets to welcome the team home.

    Torres pokes fun at Trump

    While the music and dancing caught the eye, match-winning hero Torres provided the most talked-about fashion statement of the day. The forward was seen wearing a distinctive red cap that bore a striking resemblance to the political merchandise of Trump. The hat was emblazoned with the slogan "Make Spain Great Again," a cheeky nod to the US President who had presented the players with their medals only 24 hours earlier.

  • Rodri and De la Fuente thank the supporters

    The celebrations became more reflective when the squad arrived at Cibeles Square, where players and coaching staff addressed the crowd. Captain Rodri praised the unity that had carried Spain to World Cup glory and paid tribute to match-winner Torres.

    Rodri told supporters: "We’ve won the World Cup. And how many do we have? Two. These guys here are amazing, and I don’t know what else to say. I would like to remember a very important person to me, a player who has been unfairly criticized and who today is part of Spanish football history: Ferran."

    Spain head coach Luis de la Fuente also thanked the fans for their backing throughout the tournament. He said: "Thank you Spain for supporting us, for being here. We are lucky to have 26 fantastic people who are also fantastic footballers, the best in the world.

    "For me, it is an honor to manage them and share this moment with my coaching staff. Together we are stronger, don’t forget that. Long live Spain!"
