blame a team that was over-rated when they made it to #1 before being knocked out of a major toruney by a plucky US side and has gotten a little older and slower since.

Originally posted by hopscotchThe Swiss goal was definitely against the run of play but they defended well. Spain's build up play was great but their finishing was awful.

Watching Chile vs. Spain game next week. Based on what I've seen, it should be a decent game, as both may well be playing for a spot i the last 16.
the swiss were lucky to win but spain lacked something they usually have and are in real danger of not making the lst 16 now. i feel bad for chile, a win today and aganist the swiss should've been enough ease into the second round now i wouldn't be shocked to see 3 teams on 6 points at the end of the group.

For those that refuse to believe Spain are candidates, this goal:

Just can't get enough of watching that one, great goal. I didn't see this game but judging by the stats the swiss got very lucky.
