The World Cup needed a jolt. Switzerland provided it. Gelson Fernandes scored on a rare Swiss attack, giving his team a stunning 1-0 upset Wednesday over European champion and tournament favorite Spain.

The loss ended Spain's run of 12 straight wins and handed the Spanish just their second loss in 50 games -- the other was to the United States at the Confederations Cup in South Africa last year.
