SWITZERLAND AVOIDS TOTAL HUMILIATION: WORLD CUP 2014

France took on Switzerland today leading with five goals to nil before the Swiz could pull two goals late in the game, closing the match at a 2-5 score line in favor of the French.

Other goals followed Karim Benzema assisted Blaisse Matuidi in the 18th minute and Mathieu Valbuena assisted by Olivier Giroud found the back of the net in the 40th minute to close the first-half.
