LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) Spain’s standout player Jenni Hermoso emulated an iconic photo of Lionel Messi by posing in bed with the Women’s World Cup trophy.
Following his triumph in leading Argentina to their third global victory in Qatar in 2022, Messi posted an image of himself sleeping alongside the World Cup trophy.
Jenni Hermoso from Spain has now emulated this gesture, having secured victory over England in the Women’s World Cup final on Sunday.
After celebrating for more than a day, she finally found some much-needed rest, and throughout, the trophy remained by her side.
She shared a snapshot featuring the trophy and added the caption: “The perfect dream that came true.”
This, indeed, was a “perfect dream,” as Hermoso’s missed penalty didn’t come back to haunt her, with Spain prevailing against England due to Olga Carmona’s first-half goal.
Having achieved global success, Hermoso will soon return to club football with the Mexican team Pachuca.
