The U.S. president and first lady greeted the Spanish royal family following La Roja\u2019s historic win over Argentina<\/a><\/p>\n King Felipe VI<\/strong>, Queen Letizia<\/a>, Princess Leonor<\/a>, and Infanta Sof\u00eda<\/a> once again proved to be lucky charms for La Roja after Spain\u2019s thrilling 1-0 win over Argentina. The King and Queen watched the match from a heavily secured VIP suite with Donald and Melania Trump, while the heir to the throne and her sister sat in a nearby section. After the final whistle, the Spanish royal family privately greeted the U.S. president and first lady inside the stadium.<\/p>\n The final match was a long and stressful game. Spain became a world champion only in the game\u2019s extra time. The decisive goal was scored by Ferran Torres<\/strong>, sparking an emotional celebration from the royal family that mirrored the excitement across Spain.<\/p>\n The FC Barcelona player has become one of the national team\u2019s standout players, thanks to his speed, finishing ability, and fierce competitive spirit.<\/p>\n The royal family watched the match from two separate areas of the stadium. King Felipe and Queen Letizia sat in a heavily secured VIP suite alongside the Trumps, while their daughters watched from another section with fellow fans.<\/p>\n Trump\u2019s presence required an extensive Secret Service security operation, including bulletproof barriers. Cameras captured the private presidential couple greeting the Spanish royal family only after the match had ended.<\/p>\n For Leonor and Sof\u00eda, the trip to New York to watch La Roja win marked a major royal milestone. It was the first time the sisters had accompanied their parents to a men\u2019s World Cup final.<\/p>\n The Princess of Asturias attended not only as heir to the throne, but also as the future commander in chief of Spain\u2019s Armed Forces, having completed her military training this July at the Air and Space Academy in San Javier, Murcia.<\/p>\n Infanta Sof\u00eda, meanwhile, has stepped into a more prominent public role this year, with this official appearance following her first public speech alongside her parents and sister.<\/p>\n When Spain won its first World Cup in Johannesburg in 2010, Felipe and Letizia attended as the Prince and Princess of Asturias. Leonor was 4 and Sof\u00eda was 3, so the young royal sisters celebrated the historic victory from Spain.<\/p>\n After 16 years, the two princesses stood alongside their parents at another World Cup final, but this time witnessing the victory in person. The entire Spanish royal family wore red to show unity and national pride while once again highlighting their close family bond.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.hola.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The U.S. president and first lady greeted the Spanish royal family following La Roja\u2019s historic win over Argentina King Felipe VI, Queen Letizia, Princess Leonor, and Infanta Sof\u00eda once again proved to be lucky charms for La Roja after Spain\u2019s thrilling 1-0 win over Argentina.
