Spain Rated Best Internationalteam Ever by joshuaidibia(m): 2:19pm On Jul 02, 2012 |
After the explicit defeat of Italy by Spain, in a 4-0 win, in favour of the spanish side, debate on spain, rating them as "The best international team of all time." That is how BBC tv pundit and former England striker Alan Shearer - high scorer at the ecu Championship sixteen years ago - described Spain simply minutes when they created history on Sunday night by thrashing Italy 4-0 in Kiev to become Euro 2012 champions. Shearer wasn't the sole distinguished figure to shower the Iberians with such praise. a fast search of Twitter can reveal thousands of users uttering a similar remark. What is not doubtful is that Spain 2008-12 are the foremost successful international team of all time. Their dominant success at the Olympic Stadium means that they need won an unprecedented 3 major tournaments in succession - their 2010 World Cup triumph sandwiching 2 consecutive European Championships. But trophies aren't everything. It is vital to notice that this analysis has not thought of any international groups before the Sixties, as a result of the scarcity of tv footage, and with that in thought, solely 3 sides will challenge Spain for the title of greatest international team ever. The likes of Netherlands 1974, Brazil and Italy 1982, and France 1984 simply miss out.
