Spanish triumph without celebration
The goal by Ferran Torres gave a moment of euphoria to more than 2,000 Palestinians in Ramallah, in occupied West Bank; a place where collective joy is an extremely scarce commodity.

Trump and Infantino contaminate football for the sake of business
In the mixed zone, from which the Argentine players fled stealthily and treacherously after losing the final, demonstrating their nonexistent greatness in defeat, a Brazilian journalist was summarizing what was seen in the longest World Cup in history: “Football finally won.”
Barça, club of world champions with Spain
From Johannesburg to New Jersey. From eight world champions in 2010 to another eight in 2026. From Andrés Iniesta’s goal to Ferran Torres’.

The cascading confessions in the Plus Ultra case implicate Zapatero
In recent weeks there had been a tense calm in the Plus Ultra case. Since José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero testified as the alleged leader of an influence peddling scheme on June 17, things began to move. He denied everything, distanced himself from any management in favor of the airline. He left the responsibility, in any case, to Julio Martínez Martínez. The businessman’s position was compromised and he had two options: to acknowledge his dealings with Plus Ultra, the creation of an offshore company in Dubai, and that his relationship with Zapatero was limited to paying him for consulting, as the former president claimed; or to follow the path of the corrupter in the Mask case, Víctor de Aldama, admit the facts, at least in part, and let the big catch fall.
