Second goal a gem for Swiss

SWITZERLAND coach Kobi Kuhn admitted the second goal in his side’s second goal in the comprehensive Group G victory over Togo could prove crucial to their hopes of reaching the last 16 of the World Cup.

An early strike from Alexander Frei and the late goal from Tranquillo Barnetta sealed the points for the Swiss who, because of the second goal, now need only a draw in their final Group G match with South Korea to progress to the second round.

The Koreans only beat the Togolese 2-1, while both the Swiss and the Koreans have also drawn with France.
