adminPARIS. — Spain are bidding to win a third consecutive European Championship soccer title but a difficult draw awaits a team whose coach Vicente del Bosque admits are in transition.
The 2008 and 2012 champions are looking to avoid a repeat of their disastrous showing at the World Cup in Brazil two years ago and they come up against Croatia, Turkey and the Czech Republic in Group D.
“We go there with the maximum objective. And that is to defend the title we won four years ago,” Del Bosque told sports daily Marca before La Roja departed for their base camp on the delightful Ile de Re off France’s Atlantic coast. It is the same situation as in 2012, but with a bit more responsibility because we are defending two consecutive titles.” — AFP.
