Iniesta message to Roja fans

Andres Iniesta has apologised to Spain fans for La Roja’s disappointing World Cup, which ended in Group Stage elimination.

The defending champions arrived in Brazil heavily tipped as one of the favourites for the tournament.

However, defeats against Holland and Chile rendered their final day win over Australia meaningless and they landed back at Madrid airport earlier today.

“There aren’t many things we can say to you at this moment,” Iniesta wrote on social media. “The disappointment at coming home too soon has been very big.

“We are very excited about being able to have a good World Cup but it wasn’t like that. We say sorry and we assure you we will work to take the national team back to where it deserves to be.”
