World Cup: understand the controversies involving the Spanish national team

The selection of Spain made its debut at the World Cup in Qatar, this Wednesday 23, with a beating against Costa Rica. Incidentally, two of the most important Spanish players in the game are on people’s lips because of the controversy.

For that reason, we’ve separated everything we know about the headlines involving Ferrán Torres, who scored twice in the game, and Gavi, who became the third-youngest player to score a goal in a World Cup, aged just 18.

Ferrán Torres paid tribute to the daughter of the national team manager

You may have noticed that while celebrating the player’s two goals, he made an “S” with his hand. At first, it would be to honor Sira Martínez, the Spaniard’s girlfriend. However, the story doesn’t stop there! After all, Sira is not only Ferrán’s girlfriend, but also the daughter of Luis Enrique, coach of the Spanish national football team.



And the tribute was first received by Sira, who was at Al Bayt Stadium watching the match.

Furthermore, the player has already commented on this closeness to the coach’s family, due to his relationship with Sira Martínez. “The coach and I know how to distinguish when we are a family and when we are player-manager. I think we should take it naturally, simply that. We are doing very well,” he commented at the time.

Gavi’s mother was a key part in the separation from his teammate

According to the Catalan portal El Periódico, Shakira would have caught Piqué with another woman – and this would have caused the end of their marriage. It turns out that, according to another journalist, the woman in question is the mother of Gavi, midfielder of the Spanish national team.

So far, none of the three (Shakira, Piqué and Gavi’s mother) have commented on the rumor.
