Classified, Spain is close to historic record among teams

The Spanish team, already qualified for the World Cup semi-finals, celebrated their 2-1 victory over Belgium, this Friday (10), at the SoFi Stadium, in Los Angeles, in the United States. The result not only guaranteed her place in the next phase, but also brought her closer to a historic milestone in world football.

With the triumph over the Red Devils, Fúria reached the impressive mark of 36 consecutive matches without losing. Now, the team is just one game away from equaling the absolute record of 37 unbeaten matches between national teams, set by Italy between 2018 and 2021.

The last time the Spanish team suffered a defeat was on March 22, 2024, in a clash against Colombia. Since then, the team has maintained an impeccable run that has led to recent great achievements on the European scene.

Furia's unbeaten journey
In the preparation cycle for the World Cup, Spain demonstrated its strength by winning the 2024 Euro Cup, beating England in the final. Furthermore, Fúria was runner-up in the UEFA Nations League, being defeated by Portugal in the decision.

To surpass the Italian record and reach 38 games unbeaten, Spain will need to maintain their unbeaten record for two more matches. This includes the semi-final and a possible grand final of the World Cup, until the end of extra time. The feat, if accomplished, will be unprecedented in national team football.
