Spain's national football team has achieved a significant milestone by extending their unbeaten streak to 30 competitive matches. This accomplishment surpasses the previous record of 29 games set by Vicente
del Bosque's squad between the 2010 World Cup and the 2013 Confederations Cup final. The current run was solidified with a decisive 4-0 victory over Georgia.
Under Luis de la Fuente's leadership, Spain has not lost a competitive match since their 2-0 defeat to Scotland in March 2023 during a Euro 2024 qualifier. Over these 30 games, they have secured 25 wins and five draws, including a penalty shoot-out triumph against the Netherlands in the Nations League quarter-finals. Despite one friendly loss to Colombia in March 2024, Spain's performance remains commendable.
De la Fuente expressed his admiration for his players, stating: "I feel admiration and pride in leading an exceptional generation of footballers. Surpassing a record set by an unforgettable group of players is a remarkable achievement. " His words reflect the pride and respect he holds for his team’s accomplishments.
The Spanish coach emphasized the importance of maintaining focus on future objectives. He acknowledged Georgia's quality but highlighted Spain's determination to perform well and secure victories. "We must continue moving forward, achieving results and progressing toward the exciting objectives ahead," he noted, underscoring Spain's ambition.
Spain is now on the brink of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup. They are almost guaranteed top spot in Group E unless they suffer an unlikely seven-goal defeat against Turkiye in Seville on Tuesday. However, De la Fuente remains cautious, emphasizing respect and hard work until qualification is mathematically confirmed.
"This team has many virtues, including respect," De la Fuente stated. "Until we mathematically secure qualification, we will continue working in the same way. I am happy with the players' efforts, but there is still one more step to go. " His comments highlight the team's dedication and commitment to achieving their goals.
