Pain in Spain as les Suisse score a stunner.Honduras 0-1 Chile
Chile dazzle by opening their tournament with the flat-out attacking panache everyone had anticipated. Honduras is lucky to escape with only one goal conceded.
Spain 0-1 Switzerland
Upset of the tournament so far. Group H gets turned on its head with the ultra-organized Swiss defense shutting out the potent Spanish attack. Spain dominates possession (74-26) and shots (25-9) yet gives up the game winner in clumsy defense of a long ball clearance from the Swiss goal keeper. Kudos to the defense of les Suisse for maintaining their focus for all 90 minutes.
South Africa 0-3 Uruguay
Uruguay is much more positive in their play after their drudgery against France. Diego Forlan scores a brace and a controversial red card sends off the South African keeper with 14 minutes remaining. Sadness in South Africa as Bafana Bafana now look to become the first host country not to advance past the group stage.
