Swiss roll over Spain in opening match of Group H.
Pun-tastic. :)
This was a game I was convinced Spain were going to run rampant but to be quite honest with you, I'm delighted that Switzerland got the victory due to the fact that I have them as part of my World Cup draw along with Chile from Group H.
After a drole first half you wouldn't be belittled in thinking that the second half was going to throw up the same boring and unspirited play but boy were we wrong and aren't we glad for it?
World Cup favourites Spain were dominant in possession as you would expect with chances galore falling their way but were denied each time, particularly Alonso's ripping strike which smashed off the crossbar.
When your luck is out, it's out and Switzerland, not keen to just defend, threw players forward and grabbed a sloppy goal against the Euro 2008 winners.
