For my españa rival lost for his lack of weight in the area, for the Swiss archer and his excellent defense and because it had little bad luck, to part of the pressure of the début and of being one of the favorites, close to brasil.

Yes España lost ...but there is a certain chance that they will fight back ...They got so many chances but could not convert them into GOAL ... Like many a times they have come here with a FAVORITE TAG on their back and failed to deliver in the very first match ... but I believe this Spanish team is different then others who have come before ...this time they have a bunch of talented player and this team is not surely dependent on a particular player... A Golden midfield with Xavi, Iniesta, Devid Silva and a very talented Fabregas... Yes Spain can afford to hit the field without Fabregas... A sharp attacking line and a dependent lower half lead by Puyol .... this team is promising ...yes they have lost the opening campaign but they will surely pounce back and they will make this 2010 world cup memorable ... Let cheer them and hope for the best ....:):):)

ohhhh!!! I am utterly disappointed!This is by far the biggest upset of the world cup 2010... They have lost never before against Switzerland...They were unbeaten for 18 match against them....Ahhh what is the time to lose !! Anyways coming to your point ....Certainly Spanish Armada was lacking of precision in front of goal ...No one was able to shoot the ball into the net!!! They brought on Tores ...but he was never looking to convincing to score ....After returning back from a long injury, he was looking rusty ! Iniesta was not in form Somehow Xavi and Devid Silva Were not able to penetrate Swiss defense ... They have missed almost 7-9 chance to score ...! If you miss so many chance you are never gonna win ...First match is always crucial ...Spain lost thought they really did not deserve so....One more big factor is LUCK ...Spain has NEVER NEVER luck in World cups...:( May be this is the time to fight back ...They must realize now ...they might be favorite in this championship but you have to put your 100% in the field to win ...They are still in .... Xavi said the right thing after the match " Its tough to start the world cup like this but it's just one game and there still time to put things right " ... We all hope they will put there best effort and get through next round ....And we all know they have that capability ....Lets hope for the best ...:):):)

Simple. That's because they entered Torres at the last minute.
