Spain reaches 28 games without defeat and breaks record

Spanish national team has not lost since the opening of the World Cup 2010 in South Africa



Spain still making history. Current world champion and twice champion of the Tournament, the team led by Vicente del Bosque arrived on Sunday after the 3-0 victory against Nigeria, 28 official matches without losing. The final defeat of Fury - not counting friendlies - took place on June 16, 2010, against Switzerland, at the opening of the World Cup in South Africa

"We are happy to keep winning and doing things right. We expect this amount of wins does not get here, "del Bosque said at a press conference after the victory against the Nigerians.

The Spaniards overcame France, which between 1994 and 1999 was 27 games unbeaten. "I hope that Spain will continue to grow," said midfielder Andres Iniesta.

Classified for the semifinals of the Confederations Cup, which will face Italy, Fury now has the task of preventing a record from Brazil. If left with the title, the Brazilian team - playing against Uruguay in the semi - will be the first team in history to win the title three times in a competition organized by FIFA.
