MATCH REPORT - Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 Swansea: Soldado spot-kick seals victory for second successive weekend

The Spaniard stroked home a penalty winner against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park and repeated the feat at White Hart Lane to maintain his new club's perfect start to the season.

Roberto Soldado struck again from the spot as Tottenham Hotspur made it two wins out of two in the Premier League with a 1-0 defeat of Swansea.

The Spain international, who also scored twice in midweek against Dinamo Tbilisi, converted from 12 yards out early in the second half to wrap up the points, after Jonjo Shelvey had felled Andros Townsend in the area.

MATCH REPORT: Switzerland 1-0 Brazil: Alves own goal hands Hitzfeld's men famous win

Switzerland brought an end to Brazil’s 11-match unbeaten run as Dani Alves headed into his own net to hand the hosts a shock 1-0 win.

The Barcelona defender failed to control a swinging cross from Xherdan Shaqiri and put the ball through his own goal with 47 minutes gone, unwittingly handing the Swiss reward after strong pressure from Ottmar Hitzfeld’s side.

The victory for Switzerland marks their first since 1989 against the five-time world champions.

Hitzeld fielded a strong side for the match, including veteran Philippe Senderos as well as promising Bayern Munich youngster Shaqiri.

Two second-half goals were enough to hand the Super Eagles a win against Bafana in the Nelson Mandela Challenge at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Wednesday.

Two second-half goals from Uche Nwafor gave Nigeria a 2-0 victory over South Africa in the Nelson Mandela Challenge.

South Africa took time to settle and struggled with possession initially.

However, Nigeria failed to capitalise on the hosts' unconvincing start as Nnamdi Oduamadi and Sunday Mba were both denied by Bafana Bafana goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune.
