67 – The number of minutes Switzerland need to go without conceding against Chile to set a new record at the finals. Die Eidgenossen’s landmark currently stands at 484 minutes, the third best of all time, behind only Italy’s 550-minute record (set between 17 June 1986 and 3 July 1990) and England’s tally of 501 minutes (16 June 1982 to 3 June 1986).
They might get to that tally but it will be no good if they concede after that.
Speed vs Efficiency
Will Alexis Sanchez, Matias Fernandez, and Jorge Valdivia be able to unlock this toughest of tough defenses? Marcelo Bielsa also seems to be very cagey about Humberto Suazo aka “El Chupete”, whose injury status seems to change from match to match. Will he finally take the field. The Swiss are without Phillipe Senderos, who left injured in the match against Spain.
