Switzerland Stun Spain   Leave a comment

Switzerland causes a biggest shock in the 2010 world cup so far by defeating the European champion Spain with a 1-0 victory.

The goal, scored by Gelson Fernandes, came  Switzerland’s first effort from open play and was a real scrappy one.

The 37 winning streak of  Spain against teams from Europe came to an end as they failed to find a way through Ottmar Hitzfeld’s well prepared denfence.
