| World Cup 2010 Day 6 |
There was much talk praising the great football Spain was practicing, however, after today’s debut it seems they only do well in practice games, but when it comes to the real McCoy its another story. Did the Swiss make great soccer or is it that Spain is over inflated?. Public opinion seems to agree with the latter one. The world cup evolved around Spain and England, experts placed their chips on these two teams yet so far it’s been a great disappointment. Switzerland held back and allowed Spain to display a beautiful, majestic and stylish soccer and waited for the opportunity for a counter attack, the wait paid off in the 52nd minute when a long, hopeful ball hoofed up the field was collected by Eren Derdiyok. The outrushing Casillas saved at his feet but the ball ricocheted to Fernandes who slid home from close range. It was only the second shot of goal for the Swiss, who celebrated the unlikely lead with a combination of shock and delight. Millions of fans were shocked at the end result, the Spanish defeat was not on the agenda, “But that’s soccer”. Honduras vs Chile Not a game to jump over joy about, a defeat on Honduras was predictable, fortunate for the Central Americans it was not a humiliating debut in the world cup. Chile has waited 48 years to win a game in a world cup and Honduras gave them the honor. Chile's pinball passing created a gap for Mauricio Isla to break clear on the right side of the penalty box and fire in a low cross to the near post. Although Espinoza got a stretched leg to the ball first, it bounced up against Beausejour and deflected into the net for the 1 – 0 lead and game for Chile. RSA vs Uruguay Uruguay stumps the host with an outstanding 3 – 0, RSA did everything humanly possible to score, but their lack of definition and coordination is very evident. Uruguay on the other hand did a fantastic job holding back the African strikers and kept a tight midfield. Forlan – current top striker of the tournament – scores the first goal 24 minutes into the game when he fired a powerful 25 meter cannonball that left Khune motionless. Once again Forlan scores via penalty shot in the second half of the game, when referee pulled the red card on the South African goalkeeper Khume for downing Suarez. Forlan executed a powerful kick to the top left corner of the net for his second goal of the game and the 2 – 0 lead for Uruguay. Shortly after that, many RSA followers started to leave the stadium and the ones still present hoping for a miracle, their hopes were shattered when Pereira released the final blow for the 3 – 0 lead and final score of the game.
