Spain boss Luis Enrique has said his side ‘executed my idea of football perfectly’ despite La Roja crashing out of the World Cup.
Spain manager Luis Enrique has stated that he is pleased with the performance of his team despite crashing out of the World cup.
Spain suffered a shock penalty shootout defeat at the hands of Morocco last night after missing all their efforts from the spot.
Enrique said: “Were you watching the game? Where have you been, with your back turned? If we have done anything, it was dominating the game.
“We lacked the goal. I am more than satisfied with what my team has done, who have executed my idea of football perfectly. I am proud of them. I wish Morocco the best.
“I am very happy with the profile of players that I have. They are the ones that I have chosen and I will go to the death with them.
“I congratulate my players for how they have competed. We are sorry for not having been able to reward the fans.
“I have nothing to reproach the players for. I only have a regret with one player, which is Pablo Sarabia.
“I put him on to take a penalty and on top of that he gave me two chances. That was a mistake, he showed me that he deserved more minutes in this match.”
