As usual in every edition of the World Cup tournament, there will always be unpleasant news for fans and football federations to hear where football players in each country they defend.
The 2018 World Cup stage is arguably not only a stage for the skills of the footballers, but also a grave for some of the players in the top player category.
Indeed there are many considerations for the reasons for professional footballers in deciding to hang shoes from the National Team that he defended. One of the most basic reasons is the age factor that no longer supports.
Here are five names of players who decided to hang their shoes after their country was eliminated from the 2018 World Cup:
DAVID SILVA
Manchester City midfielder's decision is quite surprising. Because, before there was no signal that the player who made his debut with the matador squad since 2006 will be hanging from the national team.
"It's not easy, after everything I've experienced to sit down and write these lines. These are days and weeks to reflect and analyze in making the decision to end my era in the Spanish national team," he wrote to the fan uploaded on Twitter account some time ago.
GERARD PIQUE
The main pillar in the matador squad defense line decided to hang his shoes from the national team especially considering his age had entered the head of three. This is an important consideration especially since the next World Cup will only last four years.
Pique himself has enjoyed success with the Spanish national team. He has led Spain to embrace the 2010 World Cup trophy and 2012 European Cup.
ANDRES INIESTA
The Spanish national team finally announced the shoes hanging from the national team after the 2018 World Cup. Previously, the goalscorer of Spain's fruitful victory in the 2010 World Cup campaign had already signaled his decision.
Iniesta has presented the 2010 World Cup trophy, 2008 and 2012 European Cup.He has played 131 times in total and collected 13 goals.
RAFAEL MARQUEZ
The 39-year-old player finally decided to hang his shoes with the Mexican national team after the 2018 World Cup.
Marquez has played 146 matches. He managed to deliver Mexico to the 1999 Confederations Cup trophy and the 2003 and 2011 Gold Cups.
MESUT OZIL
Ozil also made a surprise decision to resign and hang shoes from the German national team. He also wrote a statement withdrawing from the German national team via his Instagram account. Although his attitude received a pro-contra response, Ozil remained unmoved.
Ozil has recorded 92 appearances and has 23 goals. He was also a key player in Germany's success in winning the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
It is a fact of five players that this is their last match for the national team.
