Goalkeeper and captain Iker Casillas added: "It is hard to explain what happened. I ask for forgiveness. We did our best and did not want to disappoint people.

門將兼隊長卡西還說：“很難說到底出了些什么事。我希望你們能原諒我。我們盡力了，也不想讓大家失望。

"There is no option but to look into the future, think about the next game and do our best. Holland and Chile were better than Spain."

“除了放眼未來，琢磨下一場比賽并且盡力發揮之外，我們沒別的選擇。荷蘭和智利踢得比西班牙好。”
