Great goal by the Switz. Now just play some defense for the last 30 minutes and get this win.

5 minutes of stoppage time?! BAHAHAHAHA. Way to try and give Spain another chance to score. Anyways, there you go Spain, let's see how you bounce back from that. After the game those players look absolutely rattled.

Not this year. I have my money on Spain, they have arguably the best team in the World and havent lost a match in World Cup qualifying.
Not if they played like they did this morning against the Swiss...

I am actually looking forward to Spain vs. Chile a lot now. Chile may not beat them -- but Spain is going to have their hands full with that Chilean side. They are fast, feisty and always around the ball.

Stupid Spain, I shouldve just picked a perennial powerhouse like Germany or Brazil.

So happy Spain lost. If they get knocked out in the group stage that would be unbelievable. Although, that's highly unlikely.

So yeah, I'm just hoping that all the teams are taking one match to get into the swing of things. That wasn't a great first round of action.

Uruguay looked brilliant against SA.

Looking forward to Mexico and France tonight.

He better start Chicharito. If he starts that Franco dude, I'll be annoyed. Chich got behind the bench more times in less than 15 minutes, than he could in more than 75...

Nigeria and Greece are tied 1-1. But Nigeria is down to 10 men now.

Greece is soooo boring to watch, all they do is play defense.
