Roberto Martinez is leaving as coach of Belgium's national team following Thursday's World Cup exit
"That was my last game for the national team," the Spaniard said after a 0-0 draw with Croatia led to the team's elimination from the tournament in Qatar.
The team was ranked No. 1 by FIFA for four years during Martinez's tenure but never won a major tournament. "It's been a real joy being able to build an incredible legacy. I know some people only see a legacy by winning a major tournament. I see it in a different way."
