Spain coach Luis de la Fuente (told his team not to get carried away after they completed the group stage at Euro 2024 with a perfect record and not a single goal conceded. 

Monday’s 1-0 win over Albania in Dusseldorf with a second-string side came after they started the competition by beating Croatia 3-0 and then defeated Italy 1-0. Those results mean the three-time European champions are being seen as leading contenders to go all the way and win the title again, and optimism is growing back in Spain. “It doesn’t cost anything to dream, but we need to keep our feet on the ground,” De la Fuente said after Monday’s match, in which Barcelona’s Ferran Torres scored the only goal in the 13th minute.
