Spain made history on Sunday by winning Euro 2024, their fourth title in the competition, and they aim to start a new era of dominance. The team, featuring young talents Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, aged 17 and 22 respectively, is expected to peak in the coming years under coach Luis de la Fuente. Spain previously ruled international football between 2008 and 2012, capturing the Euros and the 2010 World Cup, followed by a decline until their semi-final run in Euro 2020. The subsequent early exit in the 2022 World Cup marked the end of Luis Enrique's tenure and the beginning of de la Fuente's strategy, which emphasizes diverse strengths rather than just possession.

De la Fuente's Spain is flexible, capable of both maintaining possession and launching direct attacks, as demonstrated by their semifinal victory over France. The team's evolution is promising, with the coach expressing hope for continued improvement. Key figures from Spain's past, including Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta, and David Villa, witnessed the team's resurgence at the Olympiastadion.

The victory comes after a tumultuous period for the Spanish Football Federation, marked by controversy involving former president Luis Rubiales. Despite these challenges, de la Fuente steadied the team, leading them to victory in the Nations League, and now, Euro 2024. The team's composition has diversified, no longer relying solely on players from Real Madrid and Barcelona, but including a strong Basque representation from Athletic Bilbao and Real Sociedad.

Spain's triumph was achieved without key players like Gavi and Pedri due to injuries, highlighting the depth and potential of the squad. As they celebrate their latest achievement, the team looks forward to building on this success, with midfielder Rodri expressing confidence in their future.
