La Roja began with a dominant 7-0 victory over Costa Rica, but lost on penalties to Morocco in the last 16 to be eliminated. As of right now, Enrique has been fired as coach, and a replacement will be sought, according to the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF). His\u00a0contract was set to expire at the end of the year, and after a disappointing campaign in Qatar, it was decided not to renew it. Spain was anticipated to play a significant role in the tournament, but they only made it to the knockout round after finishing second to Japan in Group E, where they were eliminated by a determined Morocco team.<\/p>\n<p>Spain has lost on penalties in the round of 16 of the World Cup in each of the last two years, losing three of their last four games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spain has lost on penalties in the round of 16 of the World Cup in each of the last two years, losing three of their last four games.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":169,"featured_media":34258,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[3260,727,1967],"class_list":["post-11791","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-football","tag-fifa-world-cup-qatar-2022","tag-luis-enrique","tag-spain-football-team"],"reading_time":"1 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11791","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/169"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11791"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11791\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/34258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11791"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11791"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11791"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
