VIDEO - Euro 2012: Spain - an animated history (the Guardian)

Ahead of tonight's semifinal against Portugal here the Guardian's animated potted histories James Richardson talks you through the varied history of the Spanish national side, from their refusal to play in the first 1930 World Cup to glory at last in 2010 and Euro2008, via penalty misery in England and plenty of political interference.

I hope you like it as much as I do!
