Iker Casillas’ sentimental life took an unexpected turn after meeting Sara Carbonero. Everyone remembers their iconic kiss after Spain was proclaimed world champion in South Africa, and they were together until 2021. However, the former Real Madrid goalkeeper has been reunited this weekend with another of the women who have accompanied him during his lifetime. This is Eva González, with whom he had a somewhat stormy relationship that ended in 2008.
The two met fifteen years later in Seville, during the tribute match that Real Betis paid to their eternal captain, JoaquÃn Sánchez. The host of La Voz played her role as master of ceremonies and presenter of the tribute gala, dressed in a Betic shirt and the legendary soccer player’s number 17. There was no contact during the match, but several images published by Vanitatis confirm that there was a rapprochement during the subsequent celebration.
According to the web portal, both maintained contact during the party that took place after the game, at the Antique nightclub in the Andalusian capital. Once there, both merged into a big hug, something that caught the attention of the attendees. There is talk that one of the presenter’s friends also took a photo with the player, which he also published on social networks and made reference to the common past between the two.
Beyond the coincidence, both Eva González and Iker Casillas enjoyed an emotional party after the tribute match. As king of the garbeo, JoaquÃn was undone in thanks to all the people he could, among them the Betis fans, his wife and his children. “In the last month I have separated three times, I don’t know how my wife has put up with me because she was unbearable, now I will rest and I would like to continue to be linked to my club, in the way they want and I can continue helping,” said the former soccer player.
The relationship between Eva González and Iker Casillas began in 2005, when the presenter had been crowned Miss Spain two years ago and the goalkeeper was still the indispensable bolt on the Real Madrid goal. Both starred in a very passionate and media romance, with the German press naming Eva the most attractive woman in a soccer player during the 2006 World Cup in Germany. However, not everything went smoothly.
After the initial whirlwind was over, they both left him for a while realizing how different they were. A separation that did not last long: “We got along terribly, we did not understand each other. We left it and came back again, â€he said at the time. However, everything broke completely in 2008 after several infidelities by Casillas, in a heartbreak in which even Florentino Pérez had the word. “That he came from talking with his girlfriend and they had a fight,” the white president once commented after his goalkeeper was late for training.
