In wake of his national side’s European triumph, the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 shot stopper has expressed his elation, claiming that the current Spanish squad is ‘legendary’.
As the Spanish national team was welcomed by their supporters in a victory parade in Madrid, several players stated their joy at their latest achievement.
Spain’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pepe-Reina-c29672 has voiced his jubilation at winning this year’s European Championship, emphasizing that the crop of players in La Roja is extraordinary.
This past Sunday saw http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vicente-c36001 del Bosque’s men successfully defend the European title they secured 4 years ago.
The Reds completely demolished their opponents, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Italy-c2926, in the final of this year’s Euro and asserted their hegemony over European football.
The final of the Euro 2012 took place at the Olympic Stadium in Kiev, and ended in the favour of the World champions with a score of 4-0.
The emphatic victory was enough to send a message to the whole footballing world, establishing that Spaniards are the only side in history to win two Euros back-to-back.
To further glorify their exploits, it is important to note that the Spanish are also the current champions of the world.
Hence, Euro 2012 is La Furia Roja’s third consecutive trophy on the international stage, which is another record set by the European champions.
Although Reina did not feature in any of the matches played by his national side in the Euro, he seemed unable to contain his happiness.
While addressing the fans in the Spanish capital during the parade, the goalkeeper was quoted as saying:
"We're a legendary team. The driving force behind the team, a patient man, the team's kindness and wisdom. I think he's the only coach who has won the World Cup and the European Championship".
Spanish national team's captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815, also voiced his views during the parade and praised the performance of his team during the coveted competition. The Madridista stated that he considers being La Roja’s captain a privilege.
"I'm honoured to captain this team of not only amazing footballers, but also amazing people. It's a pleasure to be here. This is for you and for you to enjoy,” said the veteran goalkeeper.
