Spain's del Bosque lands FIFA manager prize

Spain boss Vicente del Bosque has been named the 2012 FIFA Coach of the Year.

The 62-year old has beaten Real Madrid's Jose Mourinho and Barcelona's Pep Guardiola to the award after guiding Spain to victory at Euro2012.

It is the first time del Bosque has won the award, which only began in 2010, when he ran second to Mourinho despite Spain taking out the World Cup in South Africa.
