The man who won Spain the World Cup says his Trumpy PR move after the team’s victory had nothing to do with politics.
Ferran Torres, 26, came on as a substitute in the FIFA tournament final on July 19 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and beat Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez in the 106th minute. The strike sealed a 1-0 win and earning Spain its second World Cup title, after 2010.
President Donald Trump, 80, handed over the trophy himself. A day later, Torres rode a victory bus in Madrid wearing a red cap lifted from the MAGA template—a stunt CNN’s Kaitlan Collins pressed him on during an interview with the network on Monday.
