KIEV, Ukraine - Spain could be grouped with its three predecessors as European champions when the draw for next year's tournament is made Friday.
Trying to become the first team to successfully defend a European title, Spain could find itself in a first-round group with Greece, France and Germany next June.
Taking over from Luis Aragones after Spain won Euro 2008, Del Bosque helped Spain win its first World Cup title last year. Euro 2012, to be played in Poland and Ukraine from June 8 to July 1, will feature the top 15 teams in the rankings of European soccer's governing body plus No. 28 Poland.
