Congratulations Spain! A much deserved victory. But the cherry on the cake was the sight of Trump reluctantly handing over the trophy and medals to the players of a country which a week ago he described as 'a wasted cause'. I hope the trophy is locked away, safe from his sticky, leprous hands. 🇪🇸

FIFA and the U.S. thought that by humiliating  Iran in the World Cup and making their logistics difficult, would turn the world against them. Instead, the amount of support they received throughout this tournament is unprecedented. They represented their country with dignity and humility. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
