Spain coach Vicente del Bosque says that qualifying for the World Cup should still be regarded as an important achievement, despite winning three major tournaments in a row.

Spain coach Vicente del Bosque has said that qualifying for the World Cup should still be regarded as an "important success".

Despite winning the last three major international tournaments, Del Bosque feels that just getting to a major competition should still be seen a big achievement, despite not losing a home game for seven years.

"It's practically a routine for us because we keep on qualifying for tournaments but we have to remember that it's an important success, because Spain were qualifying for tournaments long before me and my team arrived," Del Bosque told reporters following their 2-0 win against Georgia on Tuesday night.

"It hasn't been easy, we had problems against smaller teams and we competed with a very good France team for the top spot, but we've managed to do it.

"We have qualified with austerity."

Elsewhere in Group G, France overcame Finland 3-0 to finish second.
