WORLD CUP Day 11
Switzerland surged to top of Group G with a convincing 2-0 win over Togo in Dortmund on Monday, 19 June which leaves the Helvetians leading the section on goal difference.
Victory was secured by goals from Alexander Frei and Tranquillo Barnetta in the 16th and 88th minute respectively, the second of which took Kobi Kuhn's side clear of Korea Republic by a single goal. All the Swiss now need is a point against Dick Advocaat's Taeguk Warriors to guarantee their place in the last 16.

Also Andriy Rusol scored Ukraine's first-ever World Cup goal to give his side the lead against Saudi Arabia in their Group H match in Hamburg. Serhiy Rebrov added a stunning second and Andriy Shevchenko opened his world cup scoring with a header close range account made it 3 -0 after the break.
Kalinichenko was denied a deserved goal when he hit the bar with a shot, but six minutes from time he put their goal difference back on level terms when he sidefooted home from a Shevchenko centre.
