Xabi Alonso insists Spain is still the team to beat at Euro 2012 despite his team's 1-0 friendly defeat by England at Wembley.
For once, Vicente del Bosque's collection of stars failed to shine on Saturday as they slipped to a second defeat in 10 matches and their first loss against England since 2001.
It was a frustrating experience for Alonso, as Spain dominated possession for long periods, but lacked the cutting edge to break down a resolute England defense.
