World Cup: Spain-Switzerland

The first big upset of the Cup. Spain has the best players in the world, but I don't think they have the best team. Obviously, their defense looked a bit spotty. I have no idea why they played with only one forward most of the game. Their strength is attack. The best shot of the World Cup thus far was the cross bar hit by the Spanish defender off a corner kick. Good god, I don't know if I've ever seen a ball hit that hard. Torres isn't himself - if he was 100% - Spain would be pretty damn unstoppable. Then again, the Swiss played tough defense and got a fortunate goal. Cool thing about soccer - anything is possible.
