Santiago, July 5 (IANS/EFE) Chile goalkeeper Claudio Bravo admitted that his team failed at the FIFA World Cup after losing to Brazil in a penalty shootout during the Round of 16 June 28.

"We have to keep growing. We know we have not achieved anything. We have failed in this World Cup," the new FC Barcelona player said, reports EFE.

Bravo added that his teammates felt obliged to reward Chile with the next Copa America title in 2015 to be hosted in Chile.

"We want to compete again, to make a good impression. I'm uncomfortable with that because I train to win, not to play well and come back empty-handed and this is the feeling of all my colleagues," he said.
