  • Spain coach Vicente del Bosque admits he had no excuses to offer following his side lost 2-0 to Chile, which ended their hopes of retaining the World Cup.

    After their 5-1 demolition by Holland in their opening match, Del Bosque was looking to change the tide in the Maracana, but instead he saw his side's hopes of progressing from Group B evited with defeat.
    First-half goals from Eduardo Vargas and Charles Aranguiz secured victory for Chile, and del Bosque admitted they deserved their win.

    "We have no excuses," said del Bosque.
    “We thought we had very good chance, good players. But the reality is different."
    Goalkeeper and captain Iker Casillas added: "It is hard to explain what happened. I ask for forgiveness. We did our best and did not want to disappoint people.
    "There is no option but to look into the future, think about the next game and do our best. Holland and Chile were better than Spain."
