Spain VS Switzerland (0 - 1 )
Day 6’s second match for the day has just finished with Switzerland beating Spain by 1 goal to 0. At 52 minutes of the game, Gelson Fernandes scores. It was Switzerland’s first win against Spain in 18 attempts. Gelson Fernandes was declared the man of the match for his fantastic display. World Cup has finally brought us a real drama! Spain dominated from the first to the last minute of the match, but failed even to get a single point.The biggest hero in this historical victory of the Swiss team was midfielder Gelson Fernandes who scored only goal on the match in the 52nd minute. The action began goalkeeper Benaglio with long ball.Chile ended a wait of almost half a century for a victory on the world stage by defeating Honduras 1-0 in their opening Group H game in Nelspruit. Jean Beausejour’s goal in the 33rd minute holds up at Mbombela Stadium in Nelspruit as Chile get their first three points at the World Cup in 48 years. Only a 1-0 win for Chile in the end but they could have had a lot more goals that that. Credit to Honduras for defending well, and goalkeeper Noel Valladares in particular for one cracking save, but let’s also recognise the enterprise Chile showed going forward, we haven’t seen much of that before now in this World Cup.
