    11' 0-0 Chile launch two huge blasts, but #1 Diego Benaglio has good position on both, and blocks them both.

    Again I see the same as I did with Spain - Switzerland is playing decent bunker but it has many holes.

    12' 0-0 #7 Alexis Sánchez bursts down box right edge to 8m, has Switzerland's left flank momentarily all beaten -- but half-stumbles, and they recover and roadblock him. Sharp backpass tees up #9 Humberto Suazo at box top right post, and he swings hard and misses everything -- turnover behind him :confused:

    The empty red seats looked liked a sea of fans wearing Chile/Switzerland red. :)
