Cesc Fabregas "speechless" as Spain exit 2018 World Cup

Cesc Fabregas was left "speechless" as Spain exited the 2018 World Cup to hosts Russia on Sunday afternoon. Russia triumphed 4-3 on penalties to shock the 2010 world champions in Moscow. "I am speechless because I expected a different game today. I think Spain is a much better side than Russia. Russia had a plan which was to go to penalties and pray, and it paid off for them," Fabregas told BBC Sport. Chelsea midfielder Fabregas has won one World Cup and two European Championships with the Spanish national team.
