Meet Mrs. Casillas

-

At the 2010 World Cup, Spain lost their opening game of the tournament to Switzerlan­d. Iker Casillas made an error for Gelson Fernandes to score the winner — but it was Sara Carbonero who got the blame. According to The Sun, it was claimed that Casillas had been distracted by his new girlfriend, who was standing behind his goal as a pitchside reporter. The story spread around the world, although Casillas and Sara - as well as the Spanish press — described the story as nonsense. Sara again made worldwide news later on in the tournament. After Spain won the World Cup in South Africa, she interviewe­d Casillas. And at the end of the interview he planted a big kiss on her lips, leaving the brunette beauty speechless. Since then the Spanish power couple have rarely been out of the headlines, even after the former Spain and Real Madrid captain left the Bernabeu for Porto.
