Spain's World Cup-winning squad are returning home on Monday to a hero's welcome, with around one million fans expected to line the streets of Madrid for an open-top bus parade after their 1-0 victory over Argentina.
The players are due to be welcomed by King Felipe VI and Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez before travelling through the Spanish capital to Cibeles Square for a celebration ceremony.
Festivities erupted across Spain after Sunday's triumph, although celebrations were marred by the death of a teenager when a fountain collapsed in the western city of Ciudad Rodrigo (Salamanca).
Ferran Torres sealed Spain's second World Cup title with the only goal of the final, smashing home from close range after reacting to a loose ball in the penalty area in extra time. The strike finally broke the deadlock after more than 100 minutes of play.
Luis de la Fuente's side made the brighter start, dominating possession and looking to exploit spaces between the lines against a well-organised Argentina defence.
