Spain in Russia 2018: Andrés Iniesta and the player who also bids farewell to 'La Roja'.

After 131 matches with the Spanish National Team, Andrés Iniesta announced his departure. However, he is not the only change that will occur in the team following their elimination from the 2018 Russia World Cup.

After 131 matches with the Spanish National Team, Andrés Iniesta announced his departure. However, he is not the only change that will occur in the team following their elimination from the 2018 Russia World Cup.

Andres Iniesta had a bitter farewell from the Spanish National Team. He was a substitute and could not give his team the victory, so they were eliminated from the 2018 World Cup. However, he was not the only one who wore the red jersey for the last time.

The round of 16 match of the World Cup against Russia was also the farewell of Gerard Piqué. Two years ago, the Spanish defender revealed his intention to resign from the team after the tournament.

"I am leaving the Spanish National Team after the 2018 World Cup. I have had this in mind for a long time. I have always given my all on the field and although there are people who have appreciated it, there are others who do not want me" Piqué said after a match against Albania.

These are the two losses that the Spanish National Team will have to face for the next World Cup in Qatar. And that's not counting the need to define the position of the coach.

Andrés Iniesta said goodbye to Spain after playing 131 matches. He won the 2008 Euro Cup, the 2010 World Cup, and the 2012 Euro Cup. He was 21 years old when Luis Aragones called him up for the 2006 World Cup in Germany, his first major tournament.
