Spain have taken the lead against England in the Women's World Cup final thanks to a stunning strike by Olga Carmona.

After Lucy Bronze lost the ball in midfield, Teresa Abelleira switched the play to the left wing, where she picked out Mariona Caldentey.

From there, Caldentey set up Carmona who fired home a low strike past Mary Earps and into the back of the net to make it 1-0.

At 23-years-old, Carmona has become the youngest Women's World Cup final goal-scorer since Alex Morgan in 2011.

It's been some week for the Spain captain as she bagged her side's winner in the 89th minute against Sweden in the semi-final.
