In Spain, a feeling that they have finally arrived
The newspapers in Spain are touting the new muscular and sleek Spanish team, unified in purpose. The future lies bright as Luis Aragones has molded a team that is young and resilient.
"Spain must decide whether it wants to be a bull or matador", proclaimed Cesar Luis Menotti.
This Spanish team has found ways to be both. Under Aragones and his successor in waiting Vincent Del Bosque, they are now a serious challenge to German and Italian supremacy.
