Recently crowned French Open champion Garbiñe Muguruza turned up to her pre-Wimbledon press conference in a Spain football shirt on Saturday, so the conversation naturally turned from tennis to football.

"We are crazy about football"

Asked if she was keeping a close eye on her country's progress at Euro 2016, the star said: "For Spanish people, we are crazy [about football]. If you don’t follow football [in Spain], then you’re dead. You don’t have conversation."
