Spain's coach de la Fuente rebukes players' promised tattoos after World Cup triumph

Spain's national football team selector Luis de la Fuente commented on a pre‑tournament pledge made by some players to tattoo his face if they lifted the World Cup. Following Spain's 1‑0 victory over Argentina, de la Fuente said the promise was a mistake, emphasizing the focus should remain on the team's performance rather than publicity stunts.

He added that while the win was historic, the players should avoid unnecessary distractions and let the achievement speak for itself.
