Spain are currently the reigning World and European champion, having won the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the 2008 UEFA European Football Championship. Spain also won the 1964 European Nations' Cup and reached the UEFA Euro 1984 Final. In July 2008 Spain rose to the top of the FIFA World Rankings for the first time in the team's history, becoming the sixth nation to top this ranking, and the first nation to top the ranking without previously having won the World Cup. Between November 2006 and June 2009 Spain went undefeated for a record tying 35 consecutive matches before their loss to the United States, a record shared with Brazil, including a record 15-game winning streak and thus earning third place in the FIFA Confederations Cup.

After a 32 opening defeat to Cyprus in Euro 2000 qualifying, Clemente was fired and Jos Antonio Camacho was appointed as coach. Spain won the rest of their games to qualify for the final tournament, where they were drawn into Group C. A 10 defeat to Norway was followed by victories over Slovenia (21) and Yugoslavia (43), with Spain thus setting up a quarterfinal against 1998 World Cup champions, France, which was won 21 by France.

At Euro 2004 in Portugal, Spain was drawn into group A with hosts Portugal, Russia and Greece, behind whom they had finished second in qualifying. Spain defeated Russia 10 and drew 11 with Greece, but failed to get the draw they needed against Portugal to proceed to the knock out stages. Iaki Sez was sacked weeks later and replaced by Luis Aragons.

The team has become known for using a style of play which involves roaming movement and positional interchange amongst midfielders, moving the ball in intricate patterns, and sharp, one or two-touch passing - this style of play has been dubbed Tiki-taka (or Tiqui-taca), which is also associated with FC Barcelona.
