Spain coach Vicente del Bosque admits his players are at 'breaking point' following a gruelling European and domestic season.

The reigning world and European champions are preparing for the Euro 2012 final against Italy on Sunday after their dramatic penalty shoot-out win over Portugal on Wednesday.
In the build-up to that game Del Bosque voiced his concerns over his squad's fitness following a long and tiring season.
The 61-year-old concedes that tiredness and fatigue are still an issue and he will be doing his best to to try and negate those factors in the build-up to Sunday.
"The players are tired. We're at breaking point," he admitted.
"They are players who are used to this all season and I hope they get in shape for the final over these three days.
"The training sessions will be light."
