Based in Madrid, Spain's national team is renowned for its elegant, possession-based style and its extraordinary era of dominance from 2008 to 2012.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis stunning home shirt was worn throughout 2012, including at UEFA Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine. The design featured Spain's iconic deep red base with classic navy and yellow trim - the perfect kit for what would become the defining campaign of an entire generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt Euro 2012, Spain arrived as the reigning European and world champions, hunting history as the first team ever to win three consecutive major international tournaments. Under head coach Vicente del Bosque, La Roja topped Group C with a 1-1 draw against Italy, a 4-0 rout of the Republic of Ireland, and a 1-0 win over Croatia. They eased past France 2-0 in the round of 16 thanks to a Xabi Alonso double on the 100th cap of his Spain career, before edging past Portugal 4-2 on penalties in the semi-final after a tense goalless draw. The final in Kyiv was the moment Spain truly dazzled the world - a 4-0 demolition of Italy with goals from David Silva, Jordi Alba, Fernando Torres and Juan Mata, the most one-sided European Championship final ever played and the perfect crowning of the tiki-taka era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tournament was a showcase for the very best of Spanish football. Andrés Iniesta was named Player of the Tournament, Fernando Torres won the Golden Boot with three goals, and goalkeeper Iker Casillas captained Spain through a knockout stage in which they did not concede a single goal. Cesc Fàbregas's deployment as a false nine became one of the most discussed tactical innovations of the era, and the moment in Kyiv confirmed Spain as the first team in history to win three consecutive major international competitions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs of 2026, Spain will be hoping to emulate 2008 and 2010 where they won the Euros followed by the World Cup - and they are well placed to do so. They've been drawn in a favourable group - Uruguay, Saudi Arabia, and Cape Verde alongside themselves. Their young squad from 2024 has developed and are ready to strike on the World stage this time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find them on X: @SEFutbol_EN\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Surprise Shirts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55472828055928,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0509\/5564\/9221\/files\/Spain2012HomeShirt.jpg?v=1771937836","url":"https:\/\/surpriseshirts.co.uk\/products\/spain-2012-home-shirt","provider":"Surprise Shirts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
