The recent success that the Spanish team had after winning the two consecutive Eurocops and the 2010 World Cup, cannot make us forget the hard stages that the coaches of this country have had to go through throughout history.
These are the worst coaches that the Spanish team had throughout its history:
From the time Vicente del Bosque left until the arrival of Luis Enrique, La Roja suffered enough to find a reliable coach. Julen Lopetegui seemed to be, but his presentation as Real Madrid’s new coach before starting a World Cup pissed off the Federation so much that they ended up firing him. We will never know what he would have been from that well-crafted selection.
He was at the head of the national team for two years and his great failure was consummated in the 1982 World Cup, played in Spain, in which our national team enjoyed a great squad. The team ended up falling in the second phase.
He was only two years directing the Spanish team. In that time he had the opportunity to play eleven games of which he only won four. This is one of the worst figures in the history of the selection. He was not able to get La Roja into the 1968 European Championship and ended up resigning.
He was Domingo’s successor, and despite having enjoyed a great career as a soccer coach in our country, he was unable to qualify the Spanish team for the World Cup in Mexico. Just like his predecessor, he ended up resigning.
We couldn’t leave without mentioning Fernando Hierro. The poor man saw himself with the ballot to direct a team that he practically did not know. He managed to win his group at the 2018 World Cup in Russia despite difficulties in all three games, but in the round of 16 he fell to the host.
It treats without a doubt the worst selector of all. More than a decade at the head of the national team in which he failed to qualify for the 1972 European Championship, nor the 1974 World Cup in Germany, nor the 1976 European Championship in Yugoslavia. In the 1978 World Cup he ended up falling in the first round. In 1980 he became coach of the Barcelona first team, thus ending the ordeal suffered by La Roja.
