Spanish World Cup-winning striker Fernando Torres has played his final professional match before retirement. The former Atletico Madrid, Liverpool and Chelsea forward, 35, finished his career in Japan with Sagan Tosu. They lost his final game 6-1 to a Vissel Kobe side featuring former team-mates Andres Iniesta and David Villa. Iniesta wrote Torres an open letter, in which he said "it's been a wonderful journey, it has taken us to every corner of the world". Torres made 110 appearances for Spain and won the World Cup in 2010, as well as the European Championships in 2008 and 2012, scoring in both finals. |
