spanish national team was coming to the boil and about to scald world football for six years , la roja 's own fans did n't even know the water was hot .
because they left spanish soil having eked out two single-goal wins , over peru and the usa , the booing , whistling and jeering which had pursued them around the peninsula for two years was the last thing they heard before heading off to win euro 2008 .
three trophies later , the senior team is finally in search of a reboot , that but their fans had booed them before , not recognising a great team .
