Spain coach Luis de la Fuente says his players are β€˜insatiable’ and warned Europe they can get even better.

La Roja booked a semi-final date with France in Munich on Tuesday thanks to a last-gasp winner against Germany from Mikel Merino in the dying seconds of extra-time in Stuttgart.

De la Fuente – who has coached many of his current crop with the under-21s – told uefa.com: β€œThis is the moment to appreciate what we’ve achieved and enjoy this moment.

β€œPhysically we’ll see how we can improve in the next few days. I’m sure that all of my players are ready (for France). They’re playing at a very high level.”

The 63-year-old spoke of his pride, adding: β€œThis is a historic night. I’m proud to be able to represent our country.

β€œHow far we get, we will see, but we’re absolutely convinced that we can get very far with this team.

β€œMy players are insatiable. I’m proud to coach players like this. I’ve known many of them for many years.

β€œThey’re used to competing at the highest level and they have an opportunity to win (the tournament).

β€œThere’s always room for improvement, of course, but we can’t question their pride, quality and commitment.

β€œOur euphoria is totally under control. We’re so happy, but we know that tomorrow is already another day.”
