WORLD SOCCER | SPAIN WORLD RECORD AS DEFEATED IN OFFICIAL FOOTBALL MATCHES

An important current of International Football observers, Sports media & ex-Footballers are going on the record claiming the the current Spanish Football Team is the "Greatest National Football Team" of all time. Huge acclaim & honour as those some commentators insist that Spain is better than the 1970 Brazil squad of Pele & the 1974 Dutch squad of Cruyff. The back to back European Championships of 2008 & 2012 & the in between FIFA World Cup are solid arguments that give faith to the Spanish dominance of World Football since 2008.

SPAIN FOOTBALL TEAM

Said this there is more evidence & arguments to the idea that this Spanish Football Team is the "Greatest of all History". The last time the Spanish Football National Team lost in an official match was against Switzerland in the opening Group match of the FIFA World Cup the 16th of June 2010. From here onwards Spain has been undefeated in official games.

With yesterdays 3-0 victory over Nigeria in the FIFA Confederations Cup, Spain notched up its 28th straight official match undefeated ( 24 victories & 4 draws)  & in the process gained a new "World Record". Spain surpassed the last record holder France which had 27 games undefeated which they achieved from 1994 to 1999. The current third placed World Record holder is Argentina with 26 games undefeated which they managed between the years 1945 - 1956.

There is one fact that is definitely undisputed, that we are all witnessing an extraordinary & perhaps never again repeatable generation of Spanish Footballers. This encourages me to advise everyone to keep watching & just enjoy this team for it can´t last forever. If Spain can win this edition of the Confederations Cup it would be another milestone & if on top of this they can once again manage to win the 2014 World Cup it would indeed be historical. These last two are very difficult more so the latter.
