Spain coach Luis de la Fuente insisted his side are as good as any at Euro 2024 after they produced an outstanding performance to beat reigning champions Italy 1-0 on Thursday and qualify for the last 16.
“I am delighted and proud not just with the result against a great side, the reigning European champions, but with the way in which we got it, but this is a very difficult competition,” De la Fuente told reporters after Riccardo Calafiori’s own goal decided the Group B match in Gelsenkirchen. “Opponents get to know you as you go along and so it is very hard to win a competition like this, but I think there is no team better than us and we just need to keep working and playing as we have been.” Spain dominated the match at the Arena AufSchalke and could easily have won by a greater margin, with Nico Williams hitting the bar in the second half.
