Numbers Game: All the stats from Chile's knockout win over Spain

Strikes from Eduardo Vargas and Charles Aranguiz subjected Spain to a 2-0 loss against Chile, knocking them out of the World Cup in the process. Here are the top stats and facts from the tournament-defining match. - This is the first time Spain have lost consecutive matches in a single World Cup since 1982. They also lost two games in a row for the first time since 2006. - The kings of football vacated their throne less than five hours after King Juan Carlos of Spain formally abdicated. - Spain conceded seven goals in their two games at World Cup 2014; they allowed two goals in 660 minutes at 2010 World Cup. In their last three tournament victories (2008, 2012 Euros and 2010 WC), they conceded only six combined. Also, they conceded more than six goals only once before in World Cups — in 1950, also in Brazil.
