Chile wins

Chile beat Trinidad & Tobago with 2-0 after last night's International friendly match in Iquique.

Pedro Morales, who currently plays for Croatia's Dynamo Zagreb scored in the first minute, after a very nice first attack. He was the only Chilean player that was called in from a European team. The goal certainly have him a much better chance of making the World Cup team. He is an offensive creative midfielder, and if he makes the team will compete against players like Mati Fernandez, Jorge Valdivia and unfortunate, many others.

The second goal was scored in the 48'th minute by 20-year old Colo-Colo defender Sebastian Toro.

Both goals can be seen below.
