Spain have appeared in the World Cup finals on 12 occasions, starting in 1934 when they reached the quarterfinals in Italy. Their best showing came in 1950 in Brazil, when they ended fourth.
La Furia Roja, coached at the time by Guillermo Eizaguirre, finished bottom of the final group (there were no knockout stages in the 1950 tournament) after a 2-2 draw with eventual champions Uruguay, a 6-1 loss to the host nation and a 3-1 reverse at the hands of Sweden.
The Spanish have generally been regarded as underachievers in the World Cup and this is reflected in the fact that, apart from 1950, they have not reached the final four.
The Iberians suffered quarterfinal defeats in 1986, 1994 and 2002. In Germany 2006 they were beaten 3-1 by France in the first knockout round. Spain were the host nation for the 1982 World Cup, where they reached the second round.
