Spain Win Women's World Cup Title
England narrowly missed out on the chance of being crowned world champions as they were narrowly beaten in the final of the Women's World Cup. In what was seen as a golden opportunity to win some silverware, the Lionesses were beaten 1-0 by Spain at the final which took place at Stadium Australia or the Accor Stadium in Sydney. It was an extremely tensely contested match which was played in front of a sell out crowd. It was widely being anticipated as England's chance to win their first piece of major silverware since the men's team won the World cup in 1966.

The question arises as to what makes baseball so special in the Dominican Republic and why so many of its players end up in the United States.
