再见西班牙：卫冕冠军西班牙0-2提前出局
一场无法改变命运的比赛过后，63岁的西班牙名帅博斯克变得有些心灰意冷，他说，“西班牙队已经到了必须变革的阶段，同样包括我自己。”在接连输给荷兰与智利后，卫冕冠军西班牙队已被挡在淘汰赛的大门之外。在18日的赛后新闻发布会，博斯克承认，“这场失败必然会带来一些‘后果’。”他说，“我们需要一支更完美的西班牙队，也包括我自己。”
2014年世界杯B组一场焦点战在马拉卡纳球场展开争夺，西班牙对阵智利，最终西班牙0-2不敌智利，上半场比赛，凭借巴尔加斯和阿兰吉斯的进球，智利队取得2球领先;最终2-0的比分保持到了全场比赛结束，卫冕冠军提前出局，智利则提前出线。
RIO DE JANEIRO: Defending champions Spain slumped to a 2-0 defeat to Chile
and crashed out of the World Cup on Wednesday after their second defeat in five
days.
Chile's victory -- through goals from Eduardo Vargas and Charles Arranguiz
-- made the South Americans and the Netherlands the first teams to go through to
the second round.
After a golden era that saw them win the European Championships in 2008 and
2012 and the World Cup in 2010, Spain have suffered a dramatic fall from grace.
They equalled Italy's unwanted record in 1950 of being booted out of the World
Cup after just two games.
It was Chile's first win over the Spanish in 11 meetings.
Spain's confidence seemed to have evaporated after their 5-1 defeat to the
Netherlands in their first Group B game on Friday.
Coach Vicente del Bosque dropped established stars Gerard Pique and Xavi
Hernandez but it had no impact in the charged atmosphere of Rio de Janeiro's
Maracana stadium.
Chile pressed forward from the start. Vargas' shot in the second minute was
narrowly deflected wide of the goal by a defender.
Spain also pushed up, but errors soon proved costly.
Xabi Alonso gave the ball away in the 20th minute and the ball reached
Arranguiz in the penalty area who slipped it inside to Vargas who smashed the
ball past Spain's captain Iker Casillas, making a Spanish record 17th appearance
in a World Cup finals match.
Spain's defence was in disarray.
The game carried on at a furious pace as the defending champions sought a
way back into the game.
But in the 43rd minute, Casillas clumsily punched away a free kick by
Barcelona star Alexis Sanchez. The ball went straight to Arranguiz who struck it
into the net.
Casilllas seemed shell-shocked as he walked off at half-time. Defender
Sergio Ramos and other Spanish players also shook their heads in disbelief.
Spain's pitiful state seemed to be epitomized by misses in the second half.
Diego Costa had a shot deflected wide and in the 53rd minute Sergio Busquets's
was clear in front of goal but a seemingly simple tap in went wide.
Chile's goalkeeper Claudio Bravo pulled off a brilliant reflex save to stop
an Andres Iniesta shot in the 84th minute.
The historic Maracana stadium erupted into a riot of red and blue as
Chilean supporters started noisy celebrations. Thousands crossed the Andes in
special convoys to watch Chile's games.
Chile play Netherlands to decide top place in Group B on June 23. Spain
play their final game against Australia on the same day.
