Jose Pekerman has quit as coach of Argentina following their quarter-final
loss to Germany on penalties.
"This has come to an end and I will certainly not go on," he said.
"You have to make a decision and I'm convinced I've done everything in my
reach, and it's time to look for something else.
"I'm very sorry for the coaches and the fans and the players, this team
deserves to go further but we couldn't make it."
Argentina led through a Roberto Ayala goal but Miroslav's late equaliser
sent the game into extra-time.
Ayala and Esteban Cambiasson both missed in the penalty shoot-out to see the
hosts progress.
Pekerman added: "It was a very exciting match. We also played like
favourites and gave our best although we lost.
"The penalties were a consequence of a very even match. It's a shame for
Argentina who played very well and in the whole championship." |
