Spain and Switzerland will be the last club that played the first game. Both meet in Mabhida Stadium.

For Switzerland, this fight too early because they can not play Alexander Frei and Valon Behrami. Both were injured, and only expected to play in the third game.

Swiss striker Frei is the most productive. Behrami is believed to balance the benefits of individual players, Spain.

Unlike Hitzfeld Vicente Del Bosque need all their best defender to the midfield and front attack concentration and develop games.

Andres Iniesta had back fit, and may be played. Fernando Torres is in the healing phase. As a result, David Villa will play alone up front, and Del Bosque confident goals will be created from midfield.

Spanish back line will likely be filled Carles Puyol, Gerard Pique, Sergio Ramos and Joan Capdevilla. Captain Iker Casillas was still standing under the rule.

Del Bosque confident game against Switzerland will be very heavy. But his colleagues believe Villa will play as usual, and not moved with the rhythm created by the Swiss.
