The Spanish national team ensured they remained the leaders of Group G as they see of Macedonia.

It was an easy ride for Spain as their hosts pulled one back after David Silva and Diego Costa had scored a goal each.

The former Euro winners were confident throughout the affair. The team worked on build up play which Silva finished. Chelsea striker then combined with Real’s Isco for the second goal before the break. After the break, Spain continued to keep a lid on things until Stefan Ristovski broke away from the halfway line to pull one back – getting his first international goal.

Football clubs in Spain have continued their dominance in continental clashes in the last two decades.

Spanish sides boast of having more titles on the continent than any other country.

Xavi Hernandez, Andres Iniesta, CarlesPuyol, Iker Casillas, Xabi Alonso, David Villa and Fernando Torres are some of the more renowned Spanish players who were considered to be part of Spain’s ‘’Golden Generation’’ which went on to win major competitions including: The 2008 UEFA Euros, 2010 FIFA World Cup and the 2012 UEFA Euros.

This golden generation of Spain had world-class players performing alongside each other in a squad that completely dominated starting from 2008 until around 2014.

New Spanish coach JulenLopetegui said that he is open to a return for Iker Casillas in the Spain national team.

In 2014, Joachim Loew’s Germany were ruthless in winning the World Cup, and it would take a brave man to back against them as they look to defend their crown in Russia next year.

In fact, seeds for the season were thrown as far as last season’s Champions League exit against Atletico Madrid.
