Spain manager Vicente Del Bosque has admitted that he and a number of players may face consequences following their disappointing exit from the World Cup.
La Roja, who were humiliated 5-1 by the Netherlands in their opener, went down 2-0 to Chile last night to bow out of the tournament.
Goals from Eduardo Vargas and Charles Aranguiz at the Maracana Stadium meant that Spain became the first defending champions to get knocked out of the World Cup after just two matches.
And Del Bosque, who guided the nation to the 2010 World Cup and 2012 European Championship triumphs, is aware that his time as the Spanish coach may be approaching its end.
"It's true that when such things happen during a World Cup or a tournament such things have consequences," he was quoted as saying by the BBC.
