Spain's World Cup-Winning Team Returns Home
Spain's soccer team won the World Cup by beating Argentina 1-0 in the final.
They are coming back to Spain on Monday.
The team will be welcomed by the royal palace and the prime minister.
Then, they will have a parade through Madrid.
Many fans are excited and will be waiting for them.
It's a big celebration because Spain also won the women's World Cup last year.
This makes Spain the first country to have both the men's and women's World Cup titles at the same time.
Some people are sad because a young boy died in an accident during the celebrations, but most people are very happy and proud of their team.
Spain's World Cup-winning team is returning to Spain on Monday for a royal welcome and parade.
The team defeated Argentina 1-0 in the final held in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
This is Spain's second World Cup title, the first being in 2010.
Spain is the first nation to hold both the men's and women's World Cup titles simultaneously.
Celebrations in Madrid were dampened by the tragic death of a 13-year-old boy in Salamanca.
