We saved our best until last, says Xavi
Del Bosque, now the first coach to win the European Championships, World Cup and Champions League, was emotional but understated when he spoke to Spanish TV after the final whistle.
“The first goal really helped us, and the second from Jordi [Alba] came at a good moment,” said Del Bosque. “We did what we could for the country, it was not easy to achieve. We said before that Italy were a great rival. I dedicate this first to Spanish football and my family.”
