Spain Nears World Cup Greatness Under Luis de la Fuente

Spain, under the leadership of Luis de la Fuente, is very close to greatness. If Spain wins this World Cup title, it will create history by holding both the World Cup and European Championship titles twice simultaneously. The teams that have achieved such a feat before are only West Germany in 1974, France in 2000, and Spain in 2010.

De la Fuente is now in his fourth year as Spain's head coach. He led the team to the European Championship two years ago and has now taken Spain to the World Cup quarter-finals, where they will compete against Belgium on Friday. The winner of that match will play France in the semi-finals.
