Spain's Euro 2016 campaign came to an end yesterday after
their 2-0 loss to Italy. Manager Vicente del Bosque had previously hinted at
leaving the job at the end of the tournament. He intends to hold talks with the
federation president to discuss his future. "I accept that Italy were better than us but that does not have to mean
it is the end of an era. Spanish football still has a great structure, with
good players and coaches, and now we must look forward to qualifying for the
next World Cup." said the former Real Madrid manager. He felt that it
was a close game and that his team was 'beaten and not battered' and also
reflected the late goal that Spain conceded against Croatia was the one that
derailed their title defence. Italy's manager, Antonio Conte was of the opinion
that one defeat doesn't signal the end of the Spanish football and he too
argued that the country's domestic structure is in good shape which would help
them come back stronger.
