Lopetegui Sacked By Spain On Eve Of World Cup by codeplace(m): 12:26pm On Jun 13, 2018 |
KRASNODAR (RUSSIA) (AFP) - Spain dramatically sacked coach Julen Lopetegui on Wednesday -- just two days before the team's opening game against Portugal at the World Cup. In a surprise announcement on Tuesday, Real Madrid named Lopetegui as their next manager to start work after the tournament in Russia, sparking outrage among the federation and Spanish fans at the timing of the announcement. At a severely delayed press conference at Spain's World Cup base in Krasnodar, Spanish football federation chief Luis Rubiales said he felt Lopetegui's decision to join Madrid so close to the start of the tournament "obliged" him to take drastic action. http://www.france24.com/en/20180613-lopetegui-sacked-spain-eve-world-cup?source=twitter |
