Spain conquered Europe for a record fourth time on Sunday as they beat England to win Euro 2024 and want this historic night to be the beginning of a new period of dominance.
Led by young stars Lamine Yamal and Nico Williams, 17 and 22 respectively, many in Luis de la Fuente's superb side will hit their prime in the years ahead.
Between 2008 and 2012 Spain dominated international football, winning the Euros in those years and the 2010 World Cup in the middle.
A fallow period followed with Spain falling badly short in most competitions until reaching the semifinals of Euro 2020.
It was a positive sign but a last-16 defeat by Morocco at the 2022 World Cup spelled the end of Luis Enrique's reign and the start of what was to come.
