The Story of the Tournament

The defence that won a World Cup

Forget the highlight reels — this tournament was won at the back. Across eight matches and more than 720 minutes of football, Spain conceded exactly one goal. One. It came from Belgium in the quarter-final, and it was the only time all summer that anybody solved them.

The scale of it lands when you look at who they beat on the way: Portugal, Belgium, France and Argentina — four of the heaviest names in world football, back-to-back. France arrived at the semi-final as the tournament's highest-scoring team with 20 goals. Spain beat them 2–0 and didn't let them have one.
