Vicente del bosque resigns spain head coach following euro 2016 exit

That's correct! Vicente del Bosque announced his resignation as the head coach of the Spain national team on July 5, 2016, just days after Spain's elimination from the 2016 European Championship (Euro 2016) at the hands of hosts France in the round of 16.

Del Bosque had been in charge of the Spanish national team since 2008, leading them to numerous successes, including two European Championships (Euro 2012) and the 2010 World Cup. However, his team's disappointing performance at Euro 2016, which included a 2-0 loss to Croatia in the group stage and a 5-3 penalty shootout defeat to France in the round of 16, led to widespread criticism and ultimately, his decision to step down.

Del Bosque's resignation was seen as a shock, as he had been a highly successful and popular coach, but he felt that it was the right time to step aside and allow someone else to take the team forward. He was replaced by Julen Lopetegui, who went on to lead the team to the 2018 World Cup, where they were eliminated in the round of 16.
