Under Luis de la Fuente, Spain has undergone a transformation while maintaining some of its traditional identity in football. The team has adopted a more forward-thinking mentality under his leadership, playing with genuine width, a proper centre-forward, and dynamic central midfielders who are not afraid to push forward and have a crack at goal early on. This change in style was evident in their thrilling 2-1 extra-time victory over Germany, where the central midfielders played a crucial role in creating scoring opportunities. The tactical shift has proven successful for Spain, as seen in their depth, tactical flexibility, and ability to score goals from midfield. As they prepare to face France in the semi-finals, Spain stands out as a formidable team that has the potential to go all the way in the tournament.
