With over 17,000 kilometers ahead of them and tons of excitement, the Spanish Women's National Team boarded the plane on Thursday afternoon bound for New Zealand, where they will establish their base camp during the World Cup. 

After defeating Denmark on Wednesday in their second World Cup preparatory match, the players and coaching staff have a journey ahead of them that will take them to the Antipodes with layovers in Paris, Seoul, and finally Auckland, where Spain will stay until Saturday, July 15th.

 

 

The expected arrival in New Zealand's most populous city, where Spain will play a training match against Vietnam on July 14th, is scheduled for early Saturday morning, while it will still be Friday afternoon on the Peninsula.

With their debut scheduled for Friday, July 21st against Costa Rica in Wellington, the team will have their headquarters located in the New Zealand city of Palmerston North for most of the tournament, serving as the true World Cup home for our international players during this southern hemisphere winter.
