Spain are starting to look frighteningly familiar — not just in flair and dominance, but in their refusal to lose. After a commanding 4-0 win over Bulgaria in World Cup qualifying, La Roja have now gone 29 consecutive competitive matches unbeaten, equaling their all-time record set between 2010 and 2013 under legendary coach Vicente del Bosque.

That golden era saw Spain conquer the football world, lifting back-to-back UEFA European Championships in 2008 and 2012, and the FIFA World Cup in 2010. And now, under the leadership of Luis de la Fuente, Spain’s new generation seems to be following a similar path — one built on relentless control, smart rotations, and ruthless finishing.

Unbeaten Since March 2023

Spain's last competitive defeat came in March 2023Scotland in UEFA Euro 2024 qualifying. Since then, they’ve racked up 26 wins and 3 draws — a remarkable run that culminated in them lifting the UEFA Euro 2024 trophy earlier this summer.

This Spanish side blends youth and experience, discipline and flair. And while it's still early days on the road to the 2026 World Cup, there’s a growing sense that this group could once again deliver footballing greatness on the global stage.
