In the meantime you can find out why the Scotland manager Craig Levein reckons the world champions might be the best side his team have ever faced by clicking here. Oh go on then, here's a snippet to whet your appetite: As if the raw talent at Vicente del Bosque's disposal was not worrying enough, Scotland must beware a Spanish squad who have arrived in Glasgow harbouring dual motivation. The World Cup winners sense they can inflict a fatal blow to the Scots' aspirations of reaching Euro 2012 – a mere four games into the qualification process – while living up to the status bestowed on them courtesy of a summer triumph in South Africa.Craig Levein believes Scotland "are probably facing the best team that we have ever played". Yet that glowing endorsement from the Scottish manager is in contrast to the relative struggles of Del Bosque's players since they gave up their historical role as pretenders by lifting the World Cup.Spain have understandably swept aside the meagre qualifying challenge of Liechtenstein and Lithuania thus far but could only draw a friendly with Mexico in August and were trounced 4-1 by Argentina a month ago. "This is something we have to get used to; every game is a special one for our opponents," said Del Bosque.Euro 2012ScotlandSpainScott Murrayguardian.co.uk © Guardian News & Media Limited 2010 | Use of this content is subject to our Terms & Conditions | More Feeds guardian.co.uk |
