Super Paralluelo sends Spain into semifinals

The teenager's extra-time goal stunned the Netherlands

Salma Paralluelo scored deep in extra time to give Spain a 2-1 win over Netherlands on Friday and send the sixth-ranked nation into the semifinals of the Women's World Cup for the first time.

The teenager struck in the 111th minute of a tight knockout match between European soccer heavyweights whose men's teams already have storied World Cup histories.

Netherlands lost the final to the United States in France four years ago, and now both teams have exited the tournament.

The 19-year-old Paralluelo made her break down the left, pivoted momentarily and from a difficult angle launched a left-foot shot into the back of the net for the winner.

"It's important for everyone," Paralluelo said.
