Four years earlier, we had witnessed a potential greatest ever European Championship team when Spain won their second title. They only went and improved upon that, by becoming one of the world's best when they claimed the Jules Rimet trophy in South Africa.

Now, Spain were nailed on favourites to become one of the greatest teams ever assembled: club or international. Just who could feasibly stop them? Portugal were a one man band under Cristiano Ronaldo, but one hell of a band. Germany had the beginnings of an all-conquering team. Italy could be dangerous, Netherlands too—but the latter for your health. This is EURO 2012: and its greatest ever team.
