Sara Carbonero

Sara Carbonero Arévalo born 3 February 1984 in Corral de Almaguer, Toledo is a Spanish TV presenter for Telecinco and sports journalist. In July 2009, Carbonero, the girlfriend of Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas, was voted “The Sexiest Reporter in the World” by FHM USA. Questions were also raised about her journalistic integrity after she undertook to interview her boyfriend Casillas after the match. As a result of the controversy Carbonero in Spain became “one of the most photographed people of the World Cup”.

During the 2010 FIFA World Cup it was alleged that Carbonero, reporting during the match between Spain and Switzerland, had distracted Casillas, causing the unexpected Swiss victory. The allegations were made in the English press, originally by Graham Keeley of The Times and later repeated by several other English newspapers, prompting the Spanish newspapers El Mundo, El País and the popular sports daily Marca to all run articles suggesting that the claims were preposterous and untrue.
