Switzerland, ranked 6th by FIFA, were battered 5-2 by France, ranked 17th. Even the Swiss players' mothers don't think they are a good team.

I'm not convinced Belgium will even beat the USA tonight. Colombia look fantastic though.

Argentina were below average in this match against a very poor Swiss team.

The Swiss played a very different game against the French, they were open and actually tried to attack. They realised that didn't work for them and decided a 10 man defense was the way to go.

Switzerland showed how to play against Argentina. Put three men permanently on Messi and ignore most of the other attacking players because they're ineffectual anyway. The only things they didn't do was go on the attack more like Iran and Nigeria did because they could have won.
