team, lopetegui has done an impeccablejob. this is about the way things have been done. i don't mean by him, but by the people who have done things without communicating with the spanish football federation while lopetegui was an employee here. that is something that we can't let pass. we we re something that we can't let pass. we were forced to sack lopetegui, but i have always said that the best person to guide the national team is mehreen. what i can guarantee is that the players and the new technical staff will do everything possible to guide the national team as far as possible. it's a very difficult situation. it's very complicated. well, earlier i spoke to the spanish footballjournalist ernest macia, who told me the whole country has been shocked by the decision. it's one of the worst decisions i have seen in the whole of spanish football. as far as as farasi as far as i know, the new coach is still surprised. lopetegui was a good coach and apparently the players were happy at how he was working with the team. and now i

their coachjulen lopetegui has been fantastic. they have been unbeaten in qualifying and friendlies and were seemingly destined to go a long way as the 2010 champions. but on the eve of the world cup, he has been sacked. his world cup started unravelling 2a hours ago, when real madrid announced that he would be their new manager at the start of next season. the spanish federation president was incensed by this. he said he only found out five minutes beforehand and he said that is not how things are done. he says his hand has been forced and he had no option but to sackjulen lopetegui. and now fernando hierro, the director of football, a former bolton player and real madrid player, has taken over. his first match will be spain against portugal, a really tough opener in group b on friday. here are the thoughts of the spanish sports journalist. it's one of the worst decisions i have seen in spanish football. as far as have seen in spanish football. as farasi have seen in spanish football. as far as i know, fernando hierro is a surpri

they have arrived at this tournament is one of the favourites, lopetegui was the man who over the last couple of yea rs has really man who over the last couple of years has really gelled that group ofa years has really gelled that group of a new bunch of spanish stars coming through with the old guard as well and were expected to go a long way. but his world cup has fallen apart in the space of 24 hours. it was announced yesterday by real madrid that kept the lack would become their new manager and this is absolutely incensed the new president of the spanish football federation who said that his hand has been forced, he only found out five hours beforehand so lopetegui's position in his eyes was essentially untenable. a lot of support from the players but there is no turning from the new president, so spain got into this facing portugal on friday with their director of football in charge, a former bolton player, in com plete charge, a former bolton player, in complete disarray, really. that is the big news from moscow but we also know what we are from the world cup in 2026. yes, we exp
