Vicente Del Bosque heaped praise on Italy and admitted world and European champions Spain had "suffered" in seeing off the Azzurri in their Confederations Cup semi-final.

Navas was admirably relaxed when slotting in the decisive kick. "I was calm, because this group of players transmits tranquility and confidence," he said. "When you are taking a penalty you can't have any doubts, you have to be very clear about what you're going to do." The former Sevilla winger added that being in the final against Brazil was an ideal situation. "It's what we were looking to do as soon as we arrived here. We are going to enjoy the final against Brazil and try to bring the cup home with us."
