spain’s incredible run to the final ends after 28 defeats

since 2002, the Spanish men’s national soccer team and La Liga clubs have won 27 consecutivemajor tournament finals, including the World Cup, European Championship, Champions League, Europa League, and Conference League.
during this time, Spanish teams have won all 27 tournaments in which they have reached the final, creating a myth of ‘finals invincibility’.

however, when Real Betis lost 1-4 to Chelsea in the 2024-25 UEFA Confederations League final, this incredible streak came to a halt for the 28th time.
it’s interesting to note that 11 of those 28 finals were against English teams.

• from the UCL final in 2002 (Real Madrid) to the Euro 2024 and Conference League finals in 2025, Spanish teams were nearly unbeatable when they reached the final.
• this record has gone down in history as a symbol of the golden age of Spanish soccer.

chelsea’s victory in 2025 brought an end to the Spanish team’s streak of finals triumphs and signaled the beginning of a new era in European soccer finals.
