Switzerland upset the soccer world this morning when they beat European champion and tournament favorite Spain.
Switzerland's Gelson Fernandes scored the winning goal by pouncing on a loose ball and forcing it into the net in the 52nd minute. “To be fair, I’m not used to scoring goals, so I was a bit surprised,” said Fernandes, who got just his second in international play. “It was a bit of luck.”
Spain badly outshot the Swiss and held the ball 63 percent of the time, but could find no way through Switzerland’s determined defense.
“Today wasn’t our day,” Spain coach Vicente del Bosque said. “We have two games ahead of us. We have to find a way to win them.”
