Fernando Hierro said he had no regrets at taking the Spain job two days before the World Cup despite his side’s second-round exit at the hands of hosts Russia.
Hierro was rushed into the post after Julen Lopetegui was sensationally sacked for failing to tell his federation about his move to Real Madrid, having already extended his contract to coach Spain.
Hierro said that Spain did everything right but that “football is like that” after his side dominated possession over 120 minutes only to go out on penalties after a 1-1 draw.
