A. Vidalis announced the end of his career in the Chilean national team

Unexpected news in the Chilean national team: 30-year-old Bayern Munich defender Arturo Vidal has decided to withdraw from the national team. Vidal made this bold decision after Chile's failure in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers. The Chilean national team lost the last match to Brazil and missed out on a ticket to next year's World Cup in Russia. "Thank you, guys, for all the years we spent together. Thank you for teaching me to believe that with great effort, everything is possible for your country," wrote A. Vidal on his Twitter account. Vidal first wore the Chilean national team jersey in 2007. In total, the defender played almost 100 matches for the national team and scored 27 goals. Not long ago, the Bayern defender basked in the glory with the Chilean national team - becoming South American champion both in 2015 and 2016.
