Spain goalkeeper Pepe Reina has claimed that David Villa's international retirement leaves a "great void" in the La Roja squad.
The long-serving striker marked his 97th cap with a goal, as the world champions beat Australia 3-0 on Monday.
"Villa leaves a great void in this team," Reina told reporters after the game "Especially on a human level.
"I'd imagine he was angry [at missing out in the first two games]. He wants to play every minute of every game."
Spain will exit the competition after finishing their group on three points.
