体坛英语新闻:Spain coach unhappy at Swiss World Cup tactics
DURBAN, South Africa, June 16 (Xinhua) -- Spain coach Vincente Del Bosque said that Switzerland did not deserve their shocking 1-0 victory over the European champions after their World Cup Group H match here on Wednesday.
During the match, Gelson Fernandes scored the winning goal as the Swiss executed coach Ottmar Hitzfeld's game plan to perfection and frustrated Del Bosque's dominant side.
"I feel it's an excessive prize for them considering the football they displayed," Del Bosque said. "They played a defensive game and tried to take advantage of any counter-attack and dead-ball situation.
"They did play well in defence. We came for the win and this time it has escaped us."
Spain dominated in possession and had numerous strikes on target, even hitting the woodwork, but failed to score.
"We tried to find solutions on our wings, putting on another striker in Fernando Torres," added Del Bosque. "Our football is not just to have ball possession but also find depth in our play. We had opportunities especially in the first half to have resolved the game.
