From the social point of view, they have managed to make the whole country vibrate with their triumphs and embrace them as their own.

The players and the technical staff have provided an example of the drive to excel, team spirit, modesty and commitment to sporting values. Success on the football field has, on this occasion, had the maximum impact at a popular, social and sporting level, both in Spain and abroad.
