Spaniards are generally quite apathetic when it comes to nationalism -- ask most people what they think of "Spanishness," and they'll likely point to colonialism, the inquisition, fascism, maybe bullfighting... but when Spain's national selection plays an important game, the flags, jerseys, and capes come out in full form. It is hard not to get wrapped up in all the fervor here!
