This summer, 32 women's soccer teams competed in the World Cup.

It was held in Australia and New Zealand and was the largest women's World Cup in history.

The final match came down to Spain and England.

Spain's team, which only qualified for its first Women's World Cup in 2015, overcame England,

beat the Lionesses 1-0 in Sydney to win its first ever World Cup title.

It is Spain wins the World Cup!

Our colleague Rachel Bachman was there and after the final whistle, Spain's champion players

poured onto the field, embraced and dove on top of each other into a big pile of joy.

And then, the medal ceremony began right there on the same field.

So, there's a platform that's moved onto the field and the players walk across the platform,

almost like a graduation ceremony and are handed their first-place medals.

And one of the people doing the congratulating was the president of the Spanish Soccer Federation,

Luis Rubialas.

Rubialas greeted each player as they came through.

He gave them big hugs and kissed several on the cheek.

Then, one of Spain's veteran players, Jenny Hermoso,

Gitter Metal, and walks across the platform up to him.

Rubialas grabbed her, hugged her, and then put his hands on either side of her face and kissed her.

It was startling.

It's customary for dignitaries to shake hands of players, typically.

If they know them very well, they might hug them.

I have never seen someone in his position kiss another player on the lips.
