Huge upset with the Swiss beating Spain. 64% possession, 24 shots (8 on goal), zero goals, and a bunch of ticked off Spaniards.
Spain has always been overrated and overhyped and they continue to choke in the WC. Don't know why everyone always jumps on their bandwagon.
I don't know if them losing to the Swiss was good or bad for my team (Chile) but as long we win, none of that should matter. The matchup next week vs the Swiss is HUGE!

You Chilean Redskins P? Does the P stand for Pinochet?
Chile looked really good today. Should have put in a few more of those chances, but definitely a good game.

I was born here, but my father is from Chile and I did a year of High School down there back in 1994. It was one of the greatest experiences of my life. The P definitely doesn't stand for Pinochet, lol. It stands for Pablo. My first name.
I agree. They did look really good today. The game could've easily been 3-0. But I'm satisfied with the win and 3 pts.

Yeah, I thought Chile looked like a top-tier team. I used to live in Argentina and have a ton of Chilean friends. Never met a Chilean I didn't get along with. Great people. Sorry about the Pinochet jab. Uncalled for.
Chile's win and Spain's loss made the next few games in that group much more exciting.

I'm not usually one to blame the officiating. But this referee is terrible, made some horrible calls

This ref should be tarred and feathered. Just terrible. Repeatedly terrible throughout the entire match.
