U.S. President Donald Trump has praised Spain’s World Cup winner Ferran Torres for wearing a “Make Spain Great Again” cap throughout the trophy celebrations, after concluding that it was a “great compliment” rather than a jibe.
Torres scored the only goal of a tense final against Argentina to earn Spain’s second men’s world title last Sunday in New Jersey. The Barcelona striker joined his compatriots in a bleary-eyed trophy parade through Madrid the following day, showing off some sore heads, the trophy and, in the case of Torres, a divisive hat.
