The last game in
group H during the
FIFA world cup 2010 in South Africa is the match between
Chile and
Spain. The game starts on 25 of June at 8:30 pm and takes place at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Tshwane/Pretoria. Chile was able to win both games during the group stage and they can reach the quarterfinal with a drawn. The European champion of 2008 from Spain must win this game to reach the quarterfinal.
Because of two victories in two games the national team from Chile is in the leading position of group H. But they can still loose this position and also possible that they will not reach the quarterfinal. It will be a very difficult game against Spain but the team from Chile got a good collective and an excellent player with Alexis Sánchez.
Spain wasn't able to win their first game against the team from Switzerland because they found no way through their defending lines and at the end the lost with 0:1. This was the first big surprise during this world cup. Against Honduras they won with 2:0 but they weren't able to win higher because they often miss in the penalty area. If Spain want to reach the quarterfinal the must win against Chile.

With Fernandes and Carmona the national team from Chile will miss two important players because they are book. It's also not sure if David Villa will play against Chile because he did an assault during the match against Honduras. If the FIFA commission will punish him, he will definitely miss one game. David Villa is now the best scorer in the Spain national team.
Last game: Spain 3:0 Chile (2008 friendly)
Wins Spain: 3
Wins Chile: 1
Drawn: 0
The national team from Spain, also known as "furia rocha", is now playing better as they did it in the first game. .Also the team from Chile is making a very good performance and they were able to win both games. But I think the European champion of 2008 will be able to win this game.
