DONETSK (Ukraine): Spain is just one victory away from making history and securing its reputation as perhaps the greatest national side ever.
Spain labored to a penalty shootout win over Portugal to reach Sunday's final, where only Germany or Italy can keep it from winning a third straight major tournament - an unprecedented feat between World Cup and continental competitions.
"Hopefully we can achieve what nobody else has achieved," coach Vicente del Bosque said. "This would be great for everyone: for Spanish football and for our country as a whole.
"These are signs of progress taking place in Spanish sports, and hopefully it will carry over into society as well," Del Bosque added.
