Perennial underachievers Spain will once again go into Euro 2004 feeling they can win
the tournament. Carles Puyol is a genuine World-class fullback. Ruben Baraja pulls the
strings in a strong midfield, and Raul, the beloved Real Madrid wonderkid, is unstoppable
on his day. One day Spain will win a major tournament. In the face of such strong
competition, including a crucial group game against neighbours and hosts Portugal,
can this be Spain’s year?
