SPANISH NATIONAL FOOTBALL TEAM | 100 CAPS CLUB

The match between SPAIN & URUGUAY yesterday was more than just a Friendly International for Spanish Football Player CARLES PUYOL. It was the night he joined an elite group of Spanish Football Players that have reached the 100th International Cap mark. The FC Barcelona Captain has already been showered with praises - & rightly so - for his personality, contribution & dedication to the Spanish National Football Team. The information piece is that he joins 6 more Spanish Football Players to become the 7th & to let you now who are all those other players.
