Spain eye gold

Reuters, Madrid
In an ominous sign for their rivals for an Olympic soccer medal, Spain's coach Luis Milla says his team at the London Games will be a richly talented and well-drilled outfit
with the same roots and playing style as the nation's all-conquering senior side.The Spanish have swept to back-to-back European titles with a first World Cup triumph in between by honing the style of fast-flowing, possession-based football known as "tikitaka" to something close to perfection.
Many of the young players who will feature for the Iberian nation at the London Games, where Spain will make their first appearance in the football competition in 12 years, are products of the same youth academies that spawned Xavi, Andres Iniesta, Iker Casillas and Fernando Torres.
In an interview with Reuters at the Olympic team's training base outside Madrid on Monday, Milla said he was benefiting from the work done in youth schools from the richest La Liga clubs such as Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao down to those in lower leagues.
"It's our very good fortune that the clubs are doing fantastic work in their academies, from the most modest up to the first division," said Milla, a former Barca and Real Madrid midfielder who led a Spanish side featuring many of the Olympic squad to a
European under-21 title last year.
"We coaches have to adapt to the already established profile of the players and do things in a similar way to the senior side," added the46-year-old.
"That means understanding the dynamic of the game, trying to impose absolute domination, trying to dominate the ball."
The Olympic squad includes three players -Juan Mata, Javi Martinez and Jordi Alba - who were part of Spain's victorious Euro 2012 campaign in Poland and Ukraine, with Alba, who scored Spain's second goal in a 4-0 thrashing of Italy in the final, a particular revelation.
The 23-year-old has just sealed a move to Barca from Valencia, while Mata, another former Valencia player, won the Champions League with Chelsea last season and Martinez was a losing finalist for Athletic Bilbao in the Europa League.
"They are young but they have been through a lot with their clubs and the senior squad and will bring maturity, energy and experience," Milla said.
"They have been exemplary because they have been able to join the under-21 team and help us become European champions. They are essentially a great example for the youngest players."
The trio are the obvious leaders in a squad that also includes Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea, Atletico Madrid striker Adrian Lopez and Bilbao pair Iker Muniain and Ander Herrera.
